I've had my Wide Glide to 85 a couple of times or so, but the wind was trying real hard to pull out my last 3 hairs so I backed off. Usually cruise around 65 - 70 depending on the road and if I'm in a hurry. That don't happen too often with a hillbilly!!
Had the RK up to 100 just to do it. Handled fine and had more but that's faster than I want to go. Have cruised at 85 on I-70 in good conditions with no problem.
