I drooled at the write up which said the best run top speed at the time was only 125~130, then the clutch started slipping and so the estimated top speed was 160-ish.

absolutely

that was about 21st in the poll

I owned that very bike! Bought as an ex-demo from Coburn & Hughes after the mags had thrashed it. It was hugely overgeared until I upped the rear sprocket by 2 or 3 teeth. Best I ever got was 140ish down the A9. Of course I just had to vote for it
