125 - how fast should it go?

[mrsm]

Or should I say, how slow??!! Iknow it's a 125 but I expected to get more than 50 downhill with the wind behind me... or is it just cos I'm used to a 600 Triumph?

Can anyone suggest anything I can do?

OK he's 41 this year so I guess I'm just being unfair on the old fella

Thanks folks!

From what I have read - 45mph is around the top speed.

My 150 Sprint is of a similar age and reaches 60 occasionally but is happier at about 50. I would have thought that 45 on the flat is about right for an older 125. (seems that an engine transplant is on the cards!)
