...few understand what I'm trying to do , but they vastly outnumber those who understand why..
Re: "GREG WATTERS" 253mph
have just had a look at the FIM World Records for 750cc Forced Induction, in 2009 Greg set/holds it at 204.291mph, ,, i recall having a conversation with him while over there last year, he said then that he felt the 750 was capable of 240mph, ,,
First Australian to ride a motorcycle over 200mph at Bonneville,,,

Lets not forget Ev Sholz ran 211 at Speedweek in 1000 AB/F and backed it up with 190 something with hole in the turbo where a conrod came out of the block
The previous record holder was in impound on a 121 pass
And then at BUB ran 203 with her replacement motor
Good work Ev

Re: "GREG WATTERS" 253mph
Thanks again everyone
We had a lot of fun and work during the month ,
Both bikes have more in them, and the handling is much better now than last year , Kim and Neill both have vids that i will try and get up in the next few weeks
Ev did well with little seat time esp at Bubs where she turned up like a rockstar on the last day,and set her record in 2 passes .. looking forward to what she can do with the bike in March .
Bones also went well on Terrys bike , nearly getting the fastest sidecar award against a gsxr1000 powered race outfit many generations the Vincents junior, i think there was only 1 mph or so in it
Not quite sure how Jeff Lemon went i know it was good for his class , but so tied up in what i was doing sort of missed the details
A good year for both the car and bike crews that made the effort
