Re: H1 Alpha top speed
I have been advised that H1's are limited in speed by the geared hubs well before the tire's speed limitations.

Re: H1 Alpha top speed
I can say from experience that an H1 is scary above 60 MPH. 70 will make you need earplugs. 80 is almost certain doom. 100 MPH would be pure insanity, and the geared hubs would probably explode in a terrific display of death.

Re: H1 Alpha top speed
I have a friend who has an Alpha. He has re programed the computer, but he has no problem going over 100 and has done this several times. It seems like everything we meet up to go off roading I hear "I was running late so I was going over 100 to get here on time". Last week another friend in a H3 has to call him and tell him to slow down because the h3 stops just before 100.

I chat with him from time to time comparing notes on Alpha ownership. He told me about the chip...

Re: H1 Alpha top speed
I have a dmax in my 2000 H1 and top out at 90mph. It cruises nice at 70 and pulls about 16mpg. If I travel 75 it drops to 12-13mpg. I have no idea how much fuel I use at 90, but don't care to find out because it is not comfortable at that speed. After all, it is still an H1 regardless of the power plant. I do get from 0 to 70 pretty damn quick though.
