Has it been posted anywhere what a 2010 FLHR is turning in 5th and 6th gear at 60 and 75 mph?

 

at least 70

 

Ditto the responses until 5,000 miles. Now the mill runs free and easy, so I'm in 6th at 55. Downshift is necessary to pass regardless as 6th is just for more economy.

Owners manuel says shift at 55 (yes - it was snowing and there was ice on the roads, so I read it out of boredom a few days after I picked it up), but it made the engine lug until 5,000 miles when it started to run very free and easy. Not sure it is broken in yet (6,000+), but runs better every day.

2010 Limited.

 

on my 06 street glide, when i went for 6th and it was not there i was glad when i looked at my speedo. On my limited i like to keep it out of 6th unless i am over 75. Only so many heartbeats and so many revs use them wisely.

 

55-60, downshift to pass.

 

Well, okay...

I re-geared and added the IDS (both mods together bring my '07 very close to '08 type driveline performance) and I live in Florida (tallest hill I normally climb is the causeway over the Indian River). On a normal cruise day, I shift into 6th at about 60 and don't bother to downshift unless I've drifted below 55 or so for some reason.

 

I think one of the aftermarkets make an automatic transmission.
