Not topped it out yet, seen about 105, but I had my waterproofs on and the wind drag was enough that I was struggling to hang on lol. Bearing in mind mine is naked.

ive had mine at 120mph does mine sound likes its a full power bike?

I've heard that the 33bhp doesnt do much to the top speed, just takes longer to get there.
Your best bet is to let someone else have a go and tell you how it feels, or just check the carbs.

Much as I'd love to weld the restrictor kit to an anvil and drop it in the sea... :p

I think its just a lean spot and not an actual problem, has done it since I put the can on.

Has he considered using those as some form of anti-chav artillery?

I can see it now ... one blip of the throttle and an extra spark in the pipes enough to send any lowered, over-stereo'd corsa bouncing down the road...
