Hmmmmm that still doesn't explain you're extremely low RPMs though. Can't be going 85 if you're only at 5,500 RPMs.

+1 on that, he also has a Koso speedo he buried past 90 before using the same set up he said.
PG longs arent set up for high volume strokers. Or strokers in general IMO

True that, didnt think about that, but it would be 13,000 then when he hit 6500 rpms. That would be loud on a stroker I bet.

I feel like you can kind of feel and tell the difference between going 13,000 RPM vs only going 5,500. And at those RPMs, according to the chart, you'd be going over 100 MPH

PG makes a long pipe for the full stokers. Is that the one you have?

Ya its a long sectional, but its called a PG Big Stroker from VT cycles at least. PG Long is a different pipe altogether.
