don't expect to go over 60-65mph without doing some work on the pump.... a friend of mine had one back in highschool...... it got like 60mpg on the highway..... but it would only go 70 max, downhill, with a tail wind, drafting....... he never ever did a valve adjustment on it and it died a horrable death.....

He definetly had something wrong with it! I had an 1980 and it would easily get up and go 80-85. Top advertised speed on these things were 87mph.
