Anybody know the mph of an M5 4th gear?(on 38's) I think all other gears are the same as a 5 Star, right?

The M5 is different than the 5Star. What was done was 3rd gear in 5Star became 4th gear in the M5 and a new set of gears and a new speed between 2nd and 3rd in 5Star was put in M5. If you put M5 gears and shifter fork in a 5Star the 3rd is 4th and 4th is 3rd with out changing to a M5 shifting cover. 4th low in old 5Star was a good speed but amplitorque didn't like extended running in low. So after all this long explanition 3rd high in a M5 is the same as 4th low in a 5Star

I have both a M5 and a 5 star. The 5 star is faster by prob. 4mph. I know in 5th road gear, it is a lot faster feeling.
