They had them on a test track up to 230+ no?
Now they've got a new version out that's supposed to go faster.
I had a Triumph TT600 up to about 125 & that's enough for me.
If I was on a closed track no problem but too many cagers ot there (no to mention the wildlife!)

Its said that if you remove the limiter over 200 is not a problem, 165 was enough for me and the time i first did it was a surprise to me. The power range after 4000rpm is scary. I under stand that the new generation of 1000cc bike go just as fast with less weight!! I wish you were closer I would try to sell you an old Bridgestone 175 and a 71 Honda Moto 250 (first enduro) that I have back by the shed.

That Galaxy reminds me of my 1st car. it was a 69, 400 engine with a holly 4 barrel carb. Man that thing would scoot. Drank gas bad though.

This is my 1956 Triumph Tiger 110, all lovingly restored. Pitty about the bad picture. I found it when I worked in Guyana, South America at the back of a chicken coop.

shotgunmaster

Yes its a fastback:D

289 with 4 sp and has been in my family since 1970! When I was a kid I would look to see if my much older cousin was around so I could lust over the Mustang! Many years later I saw it in a field under a tarp and after some time it was mine! That was about 16 years ago.

Its time for a redo is coming up soon! I hope!!
