any idea what the tach read? (I'm not suggesting you stare at your
gauges)
I was in a bike shop the other day that had a poster from Bub exhaust
advertising an opportunity to take a run past the traps on the salt
flats. Sounded like a cool loop experiment so I went to the website
only to find that Etheridge had already done it. I felt like Neil
Armstrong when he landed on the moon and found tennis shoe tracks.

For whatever reason, I'm bound and determined to get my stock Ambo up to 100 MPH. I've got a Sigma Sport speedometer that is very accurate and records my maximum speed obtained. Coming across the Gandy Bridge the other morning I had her pegged nearly the whole way. She got up to 95 MPH and held there, but no further. I'm going to take off my fairing and give it another go one of these days. How fast have you taken your stock Ambassador (750, 4-speed, 8-35 rear end)?
