Seriously, to break the ton on a Savage requires three things.
First, get yourself a Sigma Sports electronic speedo and adjust it using mile markers 20 miles apart as per instructions in the Tech section. This way you know the speed you think you see is very close to reality.
Next, do the chain conversion to get appropriate gear ratios to go 100 mph without overspeeding the motor excessively.
Third, do power hop-ups as mentioned here in a logical sequence to get enough HP to overcome the wind resistance at 100 mph. To keep air resistance at a minimum, lay flat on the tank and go go go ....
Now that you met that personal milestone, you'll never do it again as it is uncomfortable and unnecessary. You will still like the chain conversion and the extra power though as it makes crusing a breeze.
