Have a picture at 105mph 2-up on our old '06 Glide, that was pretty much topped out on it. New bike blows right past 105mph, not sure of top end speed yet, doing Stage 1 download Saturday AM, maybe see what it will do later.......

95 mph per the GPS. That was on the Autobahn in Germany, could have went faster I guess, but not really interested. At that time, I was just moving with the traffic.

This is the most I could get out of the Road King this was on a 4500 miles and I had a lot of gear. 106 mph I shifted in and out of a few gears trying to get a little more speed.

110 mph running the interstate on my way home from work with a kid I worked with on a crotch rocket.
And 115 mph racing my friend in his VW.

Both times still had some left in it.

I did get the bike up to 100 MPH once passing 2 trucks.

mine gets to 100 pretty quick, and i've gotten my streetglide to well over 100 a time or two. rarely though, as once i've experienced it, i don't really feel the need to go that fast.

I haven't attempted any "Top Speed" runs on the Street Glide. I bought it to ride "slow", but have had it around 105+mph. Did a GPS indicated 198mph on my 2002 Hayabusa. That bike is strictly for "the devil inside"!

Not mine, but a little "Hayabusa Entertainment" since we're on a "Top Speed Thread. The speedo on this bike is in MPH. Take note of the fact that the front tire doesn't come back to earth until 140mph, and check out the rate of acceleration on that speedo!
