Default Speed vs. RPMs

For those of you with a GSR. When your cruising along at 60 on the highway, what are your RPMs at?

80 MPH = 4600 RPM in my '92, although my gears are a lot shorter.

in 5th gear on my gsr, you divide the rpm by 50 and thats the speed in MPH in my car...like 4000/50 = 80mph, 3000/50 = 60mph, 2000/50 = 40 mph, etc. its proportional with the gearing some how. so going 60mph, i am at exactly 3000rpm.
