    I did ~90 one time. I was going to click it up into 5th, but I caught up to trafic and decided against it. In 4th every 1000rpm nets another 10mph~, so once I ran the spedo out I'm just estimateing. I think I can bust the ton given enough clear road and no cops.

    Not bad for a 450 with a fat guy on the back, and a 1+ tooth CS.

    Read it again, you have to "exceed" 100, so make it at least 101

    I haven't been over 100 in a week, I keep itchin to see how fast they'll really go, but it's been many many years since I've been up to 140 on a bike, and that was only once, on the Skunk I used to own. The fear of getting caught holds me back.

    Fast enough to make me giggle like a schoolgirl....The best thing about these old bikes is that younger riders underestimate them....Then are shocked.

    Minimum 100 is good. Gotta get my speedometer cable swapped out so I have a good estimate.

    IN VT it's illegal to pursue if the perpetrator is exceeding 100 MPH on State roads (some safety law)... Not sure about the interstate though.

    Faster than yours!
    9.72@146+mph was my GS1150 best at the track but I am sure I have had her over 160+mph on the street

    I had a clutch like that once.

    Took the bandit up to 120, right past radar.

    Needless to say, he heard me loud and clear.
    Never came after me though! Thank God.
