87 MPH per Honda.

MPG I think is SUPPOSED to be close to 100....but that was on 1960's gasoline

Best I could do on my '64 was 75 downhill in a tuck! (I'm 6'-5"/200lbs) I believe I got about 50mpg.

Not only that, but according to Honda, that 100 mpg number was arrived using a constant rate of travel (no acceleration) AND going at only 22 mph. Basically putting along in 4th gear.
