Was you accelerating past 125mph (on your private rd) or was you at 125mph and you put your foot down and got big red?

It's hot out there - you were pulling hard - known fact that not a lot of air actually enters the "small" scoop on the classic at high speeds, in which case the intake temp. must have been very high. it all adds up!
