    My 83 V45 Interceptor would've beat that like a rented mule. Slowest turbo from the 80s.

    I bought 4 of these brand new and rode 2 of them cross country. They topped out at about 123 mph; speed was estimated using due to the idiocy of the 85 mph US speedometer.

      It's a cool bike, not fast by modern standards, but super fun once you get on boost First thing to check is the turbo oil feed line valve and the turbine for play

    Just saw your XJ turbo record setting video and came to this one. Thanks for posting. I have a VMX 1200 purchased from auction and the front end feels bent. I'll be trying this great technique. I saw 1633 in the background, I had a couple of these. I'd be interested in the speed for the LC? Does the T shirt have the Judean's People's Front on the rear?
