Can some please tell me what the MPH are at 7,000 RPM on the RX3 Cyclone? Thanks.

Sorry, can't help you today. Didn't see your post until after I showered and not going to ride this late in the day with damp hair and body all shower-warm.

I don't look at the mph, just go with traffic flow + a bit faster. Haven't looked at rpm since break-in was complete. I'm sure someone will answer.

With all the snow and cold rain around here, I pulled the battery from my RX3 yesterday. However, based upon my memory, you should be travelling around 55-60 mph with the stock gearing at 7,000 rpms.

Thanks for your reply. I ask the question because I was wondering about the top speed during the break in period. Looks like it would be safest to just stay on the good secondary roads during break in period. Thanks again. Ride safe.

You are correct. Just vary the engine rpms, ride the secondary roads, and you will do well.
