I don't watch the spedo when I am running fast and hard but I have hit 90+ on my SG a few times, usually just messing around. Had an EFI 240Z that I had at 140 once or twice...the front end would get a little soft and floaty past that...had my wife's 06 Cadi DTS at 130, solid as a rock and room for more...however, these Texas Bubbas don't have any sense of humor at all when it comes to driving that fast on anything, let alone a motorcycle.

And I find it hard to believe that anyone can be doing 100 mph on a SG and not realize that they are going very fast...

Anything less than 100mph to Reno just isn't doable...
