RE: curious
ive been up to 90 on a pretty much stock 1988 XLH. at least it looks stock from the outside.
it was only a little past 1/2 throttle in 4th gear (my top gear!) haha, I have no doubt that my bike could get up to or exceed the 120MPH limit on the speedo. but it would probably blow thru an entire tank of gas
