So that's a minimum of ten of them. Let's be charitable and double that number
even doubling it means that there are more sitting unsold at one location than
have been sold worldwide. That apparently only twenty such bikes exist tells me
two things. First, that diamond frame builders can rest easy. Second, that
Johnny's marketing skills are on a par with his ability to win friends and
influence people.

Any bike can do 120 MPH. Just get on and jump out of an airplane.
Stopping is a bit rough however.

semi-supine position.
