I had a 1970 Kawasaki tripple that was the most unstable motorcycle I've ever ridden. And it didn't give me trouble until 130mph! It pretty much give me 'You're Going to Die" trouble at that speed!

Remember that's a officially timed [and distance] run, Not some one looking down at a inaccurate speedo while trying to kept the Trike on the road,
And not hit anything.

yeah I know its the " OFFICAL " timed run . but still seems really slow to me , yes I know speedos are typically incorrect when they say your doing 100 you may be doing like 90 ( just threw rough numbers out there ) . I mean I know not all vehicles are capable of like 200 mph passes or high speed runs just 123 seems slow to me . But I still give the guy credit for doing it, it being able to run on bonneville is awesome and I hope one day i get the chance to try it at least .

Reached a 124 but after seeing what the GPS had been reporting it makes me wonder how accurate the Speedo was on the Spyder.
I think we had a few members on this forum report differences with the speed between spyders traveling together. Also makes me wonder if the mileage is correct on these things.

Last time I read somethign about the speedo being crazy off all bikes are "off" to a certain degree last bike I saw test closest "offical" speed vs speedo speed was a buell !!!! to bad I dug some of those bikes to ;P

Three cylinder two strokes........
Anyone here remember in the sixties an Excelsior was marketed in UK with a British Anzani 2-stroke triple.....long engine of around 350 I believe....sounded beautiful....same engine went into the little Berkley sports car "kit". DKW had a 3 with 2 cyl. up and 1 cyl. forward and between. Didn't Agostini race a triple...?
Love my Trident but Spyder is better.
