A 70 degrees day in northern Minnesota is a heat wave that can't be wasted! Did a complete "first ride inspection" of my ZR7 and went out for a nice 1hr ride. With the addition of new tires, brakes, fork oil and a fork suspension modification over the winter, it made the bike ride like a whole new animal. Got back, took off the "gear" and figured I'd give the Servi a tank full of new gas and make sure all the little modifications over the winter were all good to go. (different air filter, fuel filter, kick-starter, etc...) I enjoyed riding it so much, I found myself about 25 miles from home. Bike ran smooth and flawlessly. It goes faster than it should actually! I had a guy in a PU pull along side at a light with a 'thumbs up" who said I was going faster than the 40mph limit while he tried to catch up, to get a look at it. I was just cruising along and still had plenty of throttle left. I'm guessing 50mph is possible with a little tuck and a smoother road. One day, I'll wind it all the way up with a GPS and find out "top speed". Till then, I'll need to keep eye on speed in town I guess? Who'd a thought you could possibly get a speeding ticket on a Servi? LOL. Like a rambler powered dragster.
