Guy says it does 95 mph. He probably wants to have something recalibrated...

Hi Brent, some years back there was a cafe racer called a Goodman built in a F'bed frame, best use of a HD/Buell motor IMHO

The best option is to go with a Norton twin and install the JS lightweight pistons. If you choose - you can pay a little extra to have the piston domes under-milled for ultra lightness. Note that even the JS 1007cc pistons weigh less than the stock 750 Norton pistons. Add some other trick components etc. A fast and smooth running Norton featherbed cannot be equalled.

Are you 100% certain of that?
