Title: 100mph
Post by: Andy1976 on May 02, 2009, 10:18:46 PM

My young lad asked me a question today and I couldn't answer it "Which Bike was the first to do 100mph?"
I think it may have been A British machine but not 100% sure.
Any ideas?

Cheers
Andy

Wasn't this the Brough Superior, after all they used to boast about it doing 100mph as part of the sales pitch
