 Michael (Seattle)- Another fellow Washingtonian!  OK, you
 had asked how to determine your gearing to turn 3000 rpm
 at 70mph.  Take a look at the back of your Bugpack Catalog
 and.... oh, you don't have one?  Anyway, this is how you go
 about finding out how fast your going:

 MPH=            RPM  X  Tire diameter

 Thanks for the reply Todd. I'll will have to do some math and figure
something out. Looks like I'll need more horsepower too. What does the 336
stand for in the math equation? Thanks, Michael (Seattle, really live in North
Bend) .
