Top speed is 27 MPH. 10-20 MPH works well in high gear. The ride my friend and I attended in Minnesota we signed up for the fast group, was supposed to run 15-18 MPH. Both the bike speedometer I have on the left rear wheel and GPS showed we started out running 21-22 MPH. Asked the leader to slow down a bit as scenery is more enjoyable at the slower pace we were hoping for. Two other groups were 10-12 and 12-15. Friends Oliver 1550 diesel has the high speed gears, he was just keeping up starting out. There are Mennonites in my area that put IH 400-450 ring and pinion gears in 560s, then with 18.4 X 38 tires they will speed the engine up a bit to run 35-40 MPH. I have those gears, but don't think I need to put them in as it works fine as is. Pulled the trailer with the pickup to the Mackinac bridge crossing this year, 250 miles in 2 1/2 days, running 14-14 1/2 MPH on that trip. Got just under 10 MPG.

Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ? Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
