OK! I have been asked about the difference between the rear sprocket fitted to the European
and Australian bikes and that fitted to US/ Canada bikes.
All I can do is give you the road speeds which I get in 6th.gear.

It's very simple: 2000rpm = 40 mph; 3000rpm = 60mph; 4000rpm = 80mph; (and probably 5000rpm = 'Good morning Officer, please tear up my driving licence!' :roflblack:)

Interesting..!!

Quite a difference with the V-twin..in 5th @ 6,000 rpm's I'm doing 85 mph and my head is doing a 360* sweep...:roflblack: but thanks for the info...:thumbup:

Can't Remember Precisely

I only had the one demo ride but I do recall the RPMs were a little bit higher at those speeds due to the larger rear sprocket. I only got up to 70 mph briefly on my ride. Someone who actually owns one could chime-in here with their RPM at speed. I'm thinking there was maybe 500 more RPM showing at 60 mph than what yours indicated at the same speed.

OJ,
Those are the same rpm levels that I see on my 2014 RT... :thumbup:

As you mentioned elsewhere, Bob, the European bike seems to have an RT rear sprocket.:thumbup:

Thanks for the info, I'm about to go riding,and will check my rpm/speed
