I was running between 55 and 60 mph on the rural highways, and 70-75 most of the time on the freeway. I tested it for wot on the freeway for about a mile and I hit 85, but then I caught up with a semi, and the freeway was ending, so I slowed down some. in town I kept up with traffic meaning I was accelerating pretty briskly. I might do a max mpg run tomorrow at 50-55mph. Also, I switched to a fixed windscreen, even though she handled pretty well at freeway speeds, I wanted to get my hands down lower. I'll post pics later. now is supper time.
