Buried my needle yesterday against a Chrysler 300 hemi and was toying with him. The bike was screaming at 120. No wobble just plain stupid every time I do it but I love it.

I have seen the CVO's come with them.

I have seen them for sale and debate about buying one for my Softail.

I have seen larger ones on H-D drag bikes.

I know the drag bikes serve a function. But I wounder how much the smaller factory ones really work.

Never read a real before and after test of them.

I buried the needle past 140 a few times, including once while loaded up on the way to Sturgis, with no vibration at all.... but that was on a V-Rod, so I know that doesn't count!

Mine will do 90 all day, when I hit the Nitrous as soon as I get enough boost from the turbo it will hit 100..
