  Au Contraire!

  I had my BN1 up to 100MPH (by the speedometer) on route 8 in Winsted CT 
back in 1995.  It was stock at the time.  Now that its a racecar it will do 
over 120.

  Manuel:  if yours will do only 80, then something is definitely awry.

was called AH 100!), but it's heard of reaching this speed only on downhill 
passages.
