Ok, lets start again.

Goldwing 1000 correct?
has a primary reduction of 1.708
      a secondary reduction of 0.825
giving 1.4091 overall reduction of crank to the input shaft.
1st gear = 2.5
2nd gear = 1.708
3rd gear = 1.333
4th gear = 1.097
5th gear = 0.939
Final drive = 3.40

Lets stick to your 4000 rpm
Eng = 4000 divided by overall reduction 1.4091 = 2838 rpm at the input shaft.
Output = 2838 divided by final drive ratio 2.78 = 1020 rpm at the wheel.

To convert to MPH = engine rpm x raduis divided by final drive ratio x 168

4000 (rpm) x 4.43inches (tyre height) plus 7.5inches (half wheel diam) = 4000 x 11.93     = 47720
1.78 (primary reduction) x 0.825 (secondary) x 0.939 (5th gear) x 2.78 (final drive) = 3.83 x 168 = 643
So  477720 divided by 643 should give you 74mph in 5th gear at 4000 rpm using your current diff/wheel setup.
you done this just for me.Thanks tbone Kiss
now what would it be if i had a 3.55 diff and 205 60 15 wheels Roll Eyes Roll Eyes
only joking thanks again

Update.been riding trike trike around the town.and for a while i have notice that the water in the rad has to be topped up after a long run.so i thought i will check it out.done a cylinder leak test and found that it was pressurizing the rad on cylinders 2/4. so it was heads of to have a look and this is what i found

Why? Why?.............I know I`m doing it but I just keep on typing and my brain overtakes my fingers.........................it`s a sort of tactile diarroah  diarheah diarrhoea runny bum I suppose.............doubt I`ll ever learn.............but if it makes you lot smile then that`s fine by me.............if it doesn`t then B****x to you  Grin Grin Grin Grin

Sadly I can`t make Basingstoke now, it sort of crept up on me and I`ve got a lot of organizing to do for The East Anglia D-Day Memorial Ride on the 4th of June. Besides that not feeling too good this week. worked on Cuddles trike all day  Saturday and I`m paying the price now with a very stiff neck and can hardly walk. Hey ho life goes on.

Trikes sick only running on three cylinders use nearly 8 litres fuel on a 10 mile run. i will get more if i put a V8 in it    no. so cant ride it  
so i will be in the van   with the trike behind me   going to basingstoke

Took the carbs of again (ground hog day) to see whats happening. i pinned it down to the carbs on the near side.drained the fuel out of the bowls.took the bowls of all seamed ok.then when i checked the floats no 4 was stiff so wasn't closing properly.on investigation i found the pin that holds it in place was bent.how it bent i dont know.so to the spares box new pin fitted and checked for level and movement.put all back together.then tested by pumping fuel in to check for leaks and that the valves are closing

   

will put them back on trike tomorrow be glad when i have sorted this single carb conversion  Huh
better change the oil as well probably a bit thin now
