Genuine 75mph for a few miles on a ts1 230, 60mm stroke, devtour and 34mm dellorto, there was some left but no point killing it. :ninja:

Sat Nav = 75mph
Mates 58 plate Yamaha T Max = 82 mph
Lambretta speedo = 50-90-50-90 :)

Had my RB230 off a slow 90mph clock down hill, but in the real world [on the flat] low 80s sat up, too fast for 10 inch wheel,s if you ask me.

82 mph too fast, eh?

Try adding another 50mph on top of that.

(I'm not being smug, just observing just how bloody fast Keith's fastest speed is in the real world)
