Dude....slow the fack down and enjoy the ride. From reading your other posts, it seems that you already dumped the bike once the first day you had it. Now you are out trying to go 150mph on the damn thing. Keep yourself in one piece bro. If you want to go hyperspeed get a sport bike & some leathers and hit the track.

From what I understand, engine size and high rpms do not always correlate to high velocity, notably when talking about big heavy-framed bikes. I've heard that there are 750 cc engine bikes around 350 lbs that can go close to 200 mph, and they're probably just shifting into 3rd gear when topping 100!

My bike has had major work done to it, new tranny, and I have yet to see what it will do or top out at. Iv checked its ***** a few times through 3rd gear and that's been about it. Then why do it? Cause I could and I wanted too. I'm so glad I outgrew the need to do that or ride like that. It's so much more fun and enjoyable that way when cruising. This of course is all JMHO too!!!

Back in the day I had a rule, always break 100mph every time I went out for a ride. Now, I no longer feel the need to do that...in fact, I rarely go over 70! Sit back and enjoy the ride, life is too short to become a skid mark on the road.
