I think you may struggle to hit 88 mph with the axle stands dragging  ;D

They're not axle stands, they're flux capacitors.

Andy

I think I may struggle to hit 88mph with a wheezy old french motor.

And with the "drunk camel" handling it had, if I did hit 88, soon afterwards I would probably hit a tree.

Anyway, the speedo only goes up to 85    ???
