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.

dans racer(with number plate on).................tsi 225.........tuned of course.............
up an incline a half mile long....................95mph...and pulling strongly ...clocked by a fzr 600.....trying to follow him..................
he did possibly higher speeds back down................but unfortunatly the fazer rider got held up by traffic.................and could not keep up.........

the fazer was i may add fitted with gps,which actually tallied with its actual speedo reedings..............plus or minus 1mph...............

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)
