33BHP will get you about 100MPH tops. Motorway riding will be fine. Thumbs Up

My Son has a restricted ER 5 (very similar bike) and that tops out at about 99mph

I've ridden it two up and there is plenty of power for most things.

Motorways will be no problem

What are they supposed to do unrestricted?
because I have one and it doesn't go much beyond a ton.
