RE: top speed

A TC96 will read 120 on the speedo, a little more more even, probably means it's around 116/117 or so...

You will hit your topspeed in 5th.

RE: top speed

I was on a lonely stretch of straight highway in Utah one afternoon. The sun at my back. The best I could do was 100 - 101 mph with my 06 Fatboy. I just had to see what it could do. Never had over 75 mph since.

RE: top speed

Had my Night Rod Special do a ton once or twice, but im much happier cruising 60-70mph , its not how fast you can go but how fast you can stop, drive safely all

RE: top speed

IVE HAD MY NEW BIKE UP TO 110...AND OTHER HARLEYS PAST THE 120 MARK....NOT THAT I FLY AROUND EVERYWHER, BUT SOMETIMES IT JUST FEELS GOOD TO OPEN HER UP...YOU JUST HAVE TO REMEMBER SPEEDOS ON HARLEYS CAN BE UPTO 10% OFF OF ACTUAL SPEED AT ANYTHING OVER 80...SO IM NOT REALLY SURE HOW FAST I WAS GOING. ALL I KNOW IS ON THE BONES WITH NO WINDSHIELD I WAS HOLDING ON FOR DEAR LIFE

Had my 06 Fatboy at 100 once. Still seemed to have a little left. I am satisfied cruising at 70-80mph.

Top speed up in Canada is 100

And that is strictly enforced.

RE: top speed

Had my Deluxe to 160........................kph, thats about 100mph. Wasn't something that I feel I need to do again. I beleive my bike is about how many smiles per hour, not miles per hour.
