first how did you get rkc to 163.4 and what speedometer reads in tenths.Plus how did you get it past the wobble at 120 or so.
As for top speed my 06 roadking custom runs 120 in 4th cant wind 5th because the *** ends wobbling so bad my seat has rise form my *** sucking it up.It had 95 stage 1 when bought it had 203 cams.i would think you should be able to run speedometer out of number if you dont get any bad wobble.

You might want to say Km's maybe? 160 Km's is = 100 mph.

107 mph is about right for a near stock TC 88 with a Stage 1. Maybe 115 mph if you give it some time to get there.

It WILL GO as fast as the limiter allows you... You can peg the speedo and it keep going
