217 MPH and that was with a head wind and only half throttle. Didn't want to push it too hard.

Well I hit 115 MPH on a V-Rod Muscle! With a LOT left. Does that count?
Three touring bikes and have never ran over 100mph.
Interesting thread.

Hit 115 without any mods to my 2015 SGS. Had plenty of throttle left, but chicken out. Silky smooth at that speed. The fairing helped a lot, too.

96 mph on a on ramp with ole lady on back. Got the " What the hell was that? ". Truck wanted to drag race on to the interstate and I was tired. Best was 109 on my last bike a 2012 Super Glide. Both were GPS speeds.

06 FLHX did little over 100 on the speedo, don't know true speed. Front became really unstable and tapped off - don't like to fight the rig.
