Never mind I thought it was a club I did a ton Monday pinned the throttle till I hit red line and the speedo read 121 which is about if my calculations are correct about 106 on my BVille.

I hate it when I get my bike worked on and they delete the highest speed attained information. At one time it said 149.9mph. I just picked it up from the dealer Saturday and the current info only says 116mph. I guess the answer is yes but never on the back wheel.

First time was on a '68 Bonneville when the bike was a year old. Last time I can remember was on a '77 Yamaha RD400 when it was new. The Yammy was a 2-stroke that was crazy quick but the ton was plenty fast on that wheelie-mobile. So do I qualify if the last time was 30 years ago?

I've got that same sticker on my bike. And I try to do it justice and hit the ton every time out.

Not to be a cheap bastard but I just went to their page, read the whole story, was right there with the whole idea, went to the gear page, found the two 2.5" stickers for $6 (no big deal) went to checkout and the Motherfuckers want to charge me $8.95 to ship those two 2.5" stickers to me? NFW - not on my shift!
Considering the weight of those 2 stickers how about $.41cents? This is the type of shit that really torques me!

I'm so mad I'm gonna bump them to the top of the list for tomorrows picture! Sorry LoVel !

I will contact Great Bay Motorcycles and get a bunch of the stickers. You will have to earn them. (ie. Ton Up once) I know I will.

You could probably just stick em in an envelope for normal postage. Some sites (newbonneville) have a "standard shipping" rate that they wave for small stuff, stickers, jets, etc.
