I would of sold a testicle when I was about 21 to have a scooter that would hit a ton to prove something to my non scooterist mates. Also that was an era when you could only buy one make of bigbore pipe "off the shelf"
Nowadays there are loads of different makes of bigbores off the shelf and that kind if shows where the majority if scooter riders are. My recent purchase has almost a standard engine and love it!! I've got 5 machines on the road and only 2 of them have an expansion and one of those is tucked away underneath. WTF happened?!! I'd love to have a go on a 100mph scooter to see what it's like but just not bothered anymore in balls out performance or maybe my dick is the correct size,one of the two.I like to make things work which shouldn't work,thats why I'm still running a museum piece iron barrel.Fair play to those who are mad for it still.

Not bothered about the loads of speed thing nowadays.My rather portly figure and man bum dictate otherwise
,
A pretty standard ts1 does me nowadays and I may go even less sporty when I do me other GP.Mind you,would anyone want to do 100mph with a RAMP rear hub.

I have no preference to any kits or any dealer/tuner. why is this not a good road to go down , its creating a lot of interest , its a pity some are taken it to heart or getting sour . I have only pointed out the facts that the 105.6 mph run was done as a first run the day after only doing high 90s, then back down to a few runs at 100 to 101 mph thats the official results , as ive said something is not right with that first run and i believe it was a timing error. what id like to know is did any other bikes run before this run or was this the first vehicle to run on that day?nelson pk wrote:Will they? especially when people are publically saying that they do not believe the official results?fairspares wrote:with all the kerfuffle going on with regards top speeds i can see straightliners / scooterists putting on a 100mph showdown in 2014 , which is sounding like a very good idea to me
Not a good road to be going down in my opinion whether you like one kit or another.

that is capable of doing OVER 100mph
hope this helps Steve
I dont mean the event would not be a good road to go down but publically saying/implying that they dont believe official results is not a good road to go down.fairspares wrote:I have no preference to any kits or any dealer/tuner. why is this not a good road to go down , its creating a lot of interest , its a pity some are taken it to heart or getting sour .

I'm not sour about the SM over 100mph arguement, in fact it got so ridiculous at the end of that thread with daft comments etc it became laughable (i'm not saying you were saying daft comments, i understand you were looking at it from an analytical point of view) but what is the point of holding an event and then not believing or refusing to believe official results.......it makes a mockery of the whole thing and that is why it is not a good road to go down and say these things.
