Know what I am saying? Memorizing the mph to km conversion is a small price to pay.

They are maximum downshift points. The maximum upshift is a few hundred rpm higher.

Not rpm, speed. At 140 mph u are not going to be doing much down shifting.

Which is, directly tied to RPM.

Ah! Just realized. Damn, so next question is where can I find these with mph. Kim isn't gonna take the time to learnkph. I wonder if not having mph might get me out of a ticket or two...hmmmmmm.

I can't, not get em. So using 120-74 I'm gonna guess those gauges are about 100 bucks.....ish.

Just ran across this thread... looks like these come in MPH form now so no need to convert from KPH. Man I want a 126 just so I can have these lol...
