I'm driving an 83 Air Cooled Westfalia and I cruise at 75 quite often.
I'm in Texas and there aren't many hills.
I have to back off to 68-70 when I'm fighting a head wind.
My tach reads 3100 RPM at 70 MPH.
Its just approaching 3300 RPM at 75 and I think that is about the ideal
RPM to be running, at least the Westy likes it.
