lol...the speedo is correct...but that doesnt matter...go by the rpm and the tire size. If I were to top out that 4th gear to 7700 rpm I would be going close to 160. I was likely only around 6700 rpm in 4th...you can tell I didnt spin it up too far. 6700 rpm x 28.5 tire with my rear gear in 4th =140 mph. The speedo is slow to respond.

Either way its a guess. 138-140-142.....doesnt mean much till I go to the track. But its somewhere around 140.

FYI...first gear alone is about 55 mph
