170 is my best readout on loose gravel. This was with a passenger, and
without I only reached a little more than 160. Very strange!. Both time,
the engine was revving about 8500, so I guess the passenger gave me better
traction and less spinning. And all the time she was shouting 'Can't you go
any faster?'... Some people just can't get enough.

That should be the top speed rpm, because that's the power peak. You seem
to have different gearing or a noticably smaller rear tire than some other
bikes here, but it's rather much like mine. Does anybody know when the @
rear sprocket got smaller?
