RE: SB handle 75 mph and above?
I'm sure the street is different, but I know they weren't bs'g me with numbers because he asked me about something on the screen & I told him I had no freaking clue what the hell I was looking at. Then he started explaing everything to me. That's why I figured they had no reason to b.s. me because I was a noobie & didn't have a clue about anything.

You will never ever see 130 mph.

I am a daily commuter and while driven down I-15 I cruise at 90-95 everyday, But I only have a 20mile commute that I can do that, the rest of the 15 miles is @ 30-50. My SB is solid as a rock at those highway speeds. Not sure what she will top out at, kinda don't wanna find out either....but that is my personal preference.

can you elaborate on the mathematics?
does it have to do with HPnumbers or just topusable RPM's ad gear ratios?

over 100 ... even with a sail in front of me for the wind ... just hate the wobble it gets on long corners above 80. I usually sit at 80 when the roads allow.
