Perhaps someone can get Bob Mac's 100mph bike out of storage or the museum, make sure it's up to spec and then do a couple of laps at race speed and not merely as a demo.. and see it if makes the ton or more?

So the track has changed over time, it's called progress.

In the same 50 years we have landed men on the moon and even had a supersonic passenger aircraft. For those of you still in 1957 it was called Concorde. We even had a woman prime minister in the UK! It's true!

Motorcycles have even managed to have 2 or even more cylinders, even British nails had two or three and recently they managed to get 4 in a Triumph. Yes, FOUR cylinders! We don't even have to make dear old Geoff Duke ride an Italian bike any more to get that thrill!
