Re: funny speedo pic...
Not to take away from the pic.... (definitely too funny)
But.... What do you think about your 200R4 behind your 250? Did it make a noticeable difference?

Re: funny speedo pic...
Yeah I know its not that funny and yes the speedometer is off about 17-18%. The 200r4 and 250 6 is a great combo. With the old saginaw three speed, 55 was about all I really wanted twist the 6, now with the .67 overdrive and torque converter lock up 75 seems comfortable. btw I have been using the garmin gps as a speedometer til I get the ratio adapter

Re: funny speedo pic...
Speaking of speed, anyone know about how fast you're going if you can twist it back around to the 20?

Re: funny speedo pic...
I have had my 250 3spd Saginaw combo up to about 85mph (135km/h) using a gps for speed not the speedo, its scary and she screams but it has been done. My speedo goes about that far when i do it.
