VX rpm and speed - what do your gauges read?

[jadziasman]

I just read a post by Todd O today that stated his VX was 2600 rpm at 60 mph in 5th gear. My VX is going slightly faster than 80 mph at that rpm in 5th. What gives? Is his VX not in 5th gear?

According to gear ratio calculations, all VX's should be the same. What would account for the difference?

I posted a digital image of the rpm and speed for my VX a few weeks back. Go to my garage and click on the picture in the gallery for a close up view. It would be very interesting if other VX owners could do the same.

Any guesses why the gauges vary except for obvious gauge error? I know that my speedometer is accurate. I sometimes doubt that the tach is right though.

Please share your images and thoughts. Thanks!
