God yes, and the cobbled together horrible piece of shit that was my old CB250RS...somehow. Well, I do know how - I used to do the MOT myself cos the old MOT man wouldn't touch it in case he became infected by something. -- Lozzo Versys 650 Tourer Fireblade 929 (For sale) CBR600F-W trackbike SR250 SpazzTrakka, SR250 wivva topbox TS250C RD400F, somewhere I see a bright new future, where chickens can cross the road with no fear of having their motives questioned
In this case the CB250RS was a neglected wreck and getting it properly fettled on a limited budget was something of an achievement. It is now a decent example of the marque but I was by no means confident that the test would not reveal some horror that I had not noticed. Another SOB rescued.
Not sure what 140 is in english, but it manages 90+ mph according to a GPS inna tankbag so not bad for a 28 year old 250 single 4stroke.
90mph is very nearly 145kph. Just multiply the mph by 1.61 (or, add half the mph and then a tenth for a near-enough conversion).
When I was teaching in Dagenham that was my nickname in the staffroom - they reckoned I was the last out of school, and the first out of Daggers...
