I don't know see how 60kmph and 80mph (129 kmph) are even remotely similar or comparable. :boat: In fact your statement actually strengthens the argument of bikes getting the best gas mileage at 60 kmph constant.
I cant really think of anywhere that you would ride at 60kmph constantly, at least in north america. 60kmph speed limit would be a city street so you would be mostly in stop and go traffic. A tighter section of a backroad maybe (though even there the speed limts are usually around 55-65mph)
I never said anything about riding at 60kmph being practical or even desirable. I just stated that that is the speed that most bikes get the best gas mileage.
