RPM while cruising at 80mph

[Claviger]

Point of reference, Mini Cooper roadster S turns 2950 @ 80mph.

80/3000 RPM is with the 240/55 tire on the Rocket.

I thought 5th gear rpm should be lower since the day I bought it.

I get my best fuel economy cruising at 90 mph.

Are you running just the rear tire on the ground most of the time?

Less drag that way.

Do have to admit the carpenter work does wonders for mileage!!

I don’t doubt at all that Steel gets great mileage at 90, I get phenomenal mileage cruising at 80.

Pricey way to get better fuel milage​
