Im looking to go 80 mph and I got 100 dollars to work with

I will bet you saw the difference when you built that P-85 for your dad.

Most definitely. The castings are better, it comes with Allen head bolts everywhere, the size of the exhaust and bore is crazy too

Only thing I could suggest is finding a cabbie that don't mind speeding, tell him step on it, but stop before meter hits 100

Were all having fun but not too long after I posted this some kid came in asking "how do I go 80mph" and everyone did infact spend a thousand words telling him why it wont happen

Coming off a bicycle at anything approaching 80 mph and there wouldn't be any need for a coffin. A shovel and a 5 gallon Home Depot bucket with a lid would suffice.

Maybe it’s not why it WON’T happen but why it SHOULDN’T happen.

It’s quite possible to get a bicycle up to 80mph but it’s also not a smart idea to do it.

If someone has to ask how to do it then it’s a good idea they shouldn’t attempt it.

NOPE, just a finger nail file and a sandwich size baggie would probably scrap it all up and dispose of whats left very nicely...lol.

Then you fellas give me a thousand replies explaining why this isn't possible and I never post again.

You must of been really lonely to come up with this idea

Without dampeners and weight, like on a motorcycle?
It better be a VERY smooth road you ride that thing on.

Potholes and cracks in interstates around here make my compact pickup skitter-step at 50mph.
A bicycle at 80?
Nothing but a steel and meat-shredded tumbleweed.

To be fair to me, all I ever said was about how much power is needed to achieve the goal. I leave the safety suggestions to others.

Add a zero, lower the top speed by one half and now you are talking. Even 40mph is fast on a bike unless it has nice tires, wheels and most importantly brakes.
