95 on a 93Goldwing 2-up, pulling a trailer in Montana seemed 'relatively stable', but 110 on a late 60's Triumph 'back then' was scarey as all get out... Wheels were 'floating' and though there was engine left, front wheel wanted nothing to do with the power it had, let alone the un-used power it never received....
Did some minor racing then, and learned about High Speed crashes ...... 70 is fine now (on Motorcycle) I watched the frame and wheels flex in that video, and thought of the old Triumph.... and my earlier, (less logical) days....

Is he using normal bicycle tyres because when Guy Martin did his 120mph on the bike he used some special rubber compound. |
