This is a question to anyone who could answer this fella from sunny Spain -maybe Mr. Gallagher-
When cruising down at 60 mph in the tacho, this is 100 Kmh, I read in the radarinfo I am going 88 Kmh. My beloved beauty Sedanette Super 49 wear Silvertowns 7.60 x 15; then, the Coker factory sheet says that the overall diameter is less than 0,5 inch more if I swith to 8.00 or even 8.25. It seem the tyre symply gets fatter, but no higher: thus, it would be an innecesary waste of money (imported to Spain, Silvertowns goes Diamondtowns, yes).
Could my resplendent Sedanette have got lost in her long life the rear tranny couply and got installed another? Or, perhaps, were there different differential ratios? I can go 60-75 mph down here, but then the straight-8 sounds like an F-84 out of control. I LOVE that purr at around 55 mph.
Excuse my cathastrophic English, never been at academies.
Finally: Anyone up there know the whereabouts of the "Biker Glossary" (Paisano Publications Inc.)? Look for "Indian Motorcycle", and get stunned the explanation they give: "THE HAPPY RESULTS FROM CROSSING A BUICK WITH A SCHWINN".
