Batman, I think you have cracked it. Because the speeds in kph are suspiciously rounded off at 10's, and if those speeds were in mph and converted to kph, as you say, then they are pretty well what I already do.
Therefore I think that the kph speeds were in fact really originally mph speeds and as this was probably corrected for Australia, that whoever set it up, mistakenly used the mph speeds as they were and just added "kph" without converting, and then compounded the error by converting the now incorrect kph speed back to mph. If you can follow that. Mystery solved.
This raises an interesting legal argument. If some newbie damaged their engine by continual lugging and then pointed to the user manual, they could not be held responsible for warranty claims.

That would put your shift points at 28 ,42,56,and 70 km/h. You could round these of to 30, 40,55,and 70 to keep things simple.these would be shift points for gently going from 0to 70 km/h.If you are entering a highway on ramp where the speeds to merge with traffic were 90-100km/h you might be shifting up at slightly higher speeds.
