Speed limit +5. Don't need a ticket as I can barely afford the insurance nowI live 4 miles from work and sometimes it takes me several hours to get home. Whats the hurry
I try to go at the same speed as the rest of the traffic. If I'm out where traffic isn't a concern, @80 is good. If my wife is following me, we ride about 50. We become a mobile chicane as everyone has to manuever around us.
85 MPH is the most comfortable speed for my Road King.
Plus at that speed it's a Blast to wack on the throttle & feel the TQ of the engine and watch the speedo pass the110 mph mark in seconds.
speed limit here is 65 or 70. i like to do +5. haven't had a speeding ticket in 14 years, and don't want one either. now if speed limit was not a limiting factor, my bike likes to cruise around 78-80. really smooth at that speed.
Usually around 75-80 , but if you don't want to get mowed over in the "Valley of the Sun" --ya better be doin' 90 + mph just to keep up , LOL !![sm=signs003.gif]
