Don't be silly Dennis, you don't have to bow, just call me Sir.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
It was real fun, Den, over in two runs, they wanted a 100 + record and they got it.
104.9 West to east with a tail wind and the return was 96 giving a mean average of 100.9 mph.
Hope you have as much success with your's.

Sam. ;)

Congratulations Sam....I'll be sure to tell Rick and the rest of the boys. Don't know what they'll think of a light bulb bike BUT it's the effort. Just being my usual wind up merchant self. An aside.....had a great day at Clayton's graduation. Wished him the best from you. ;)

Sam, what was your impression of the bike? Was this a production model, or a specially prepped LSR job?

How did that 1 speed ride compare to your 2 speed ride?

Just a production model Scott, should make it worth a bit more when they sell it. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

The spread of torque was awesome as you would expect from an electric motor but it wouldn't beat the Matic over the quarter Jerry.
