Speed vs RPM 4 Years, 9 Months ago  
Where can I find a chart of Speed vs RPM for a stock 2006 Midnight Star?
I know the gear ratios are:
1st - 2.375
2nd - 1.579
3rd - 1.160
4th - 0.906
5th - 0.750
Stock pulley on both front and rear.
Stock 16" Wheel and Tire.
Don't have a tach yet, but maybe this data will convince me to get one.

If anyone would know, it would probably be Doc Shadow!
I have wondered about this too. We need to figure out the rear tire circumference, as well as the front to rear drive pulleys ratios as well to figure it out.

Only for my bike .... 100 Kph in second = 5000 rpm

You hit the nail on the head .... bike + pulleys + tires = difference

Different gear = different rpm/speed (plus speedo is not accurate)

Stock front pulley on 1700 = 32 tooth
Stock rear pulley on 1700 = 70 tooth

Re:Speed vs RPM 4 Years, 9 Months ago  
Is there someplace where we can get either radius or diameter of these pulleys?
Stock front pulley on 1700 = 32 tooth
Stock rear pulley on 1700 = 70 tooth
Maybe we could work back from there.
I know the stock Primary reduction Ratio is 1.532 and the
Secondary reductions Ratio is 2.393.
I can measure my rear wheel diameter tonight after work.

Forget it. I will email it to anyone who asks. I can send it email, and the chart is fine. But when I post it, the numbers are scrambled. Sorry
