My 07's speedo is so far off from my GPS!! On a recent ride to Reno with a buddy, I got better gas mileage than him, because riding side by side, I had ridden 8-9 miles more than him between gas stops! LOL!

I do a 100 once on every new bike I buy just to say I did.
Other than that I'm not into top speed.

112 on my '06 Ultra going down a long hill. Other than that around 80 is fast enough.

On a closed private road... I got it up to 115 on a slight downhill.

Same here! Touring last May, wife on board and loaded up. If I had realised we were going that quick I would have wound it up a little more. We're heading back to Germany this May, so perhaps....

I hit 115 on my '06 Road Glide.That was WFO.
Have not tried it on my new Limited.
The fastest I went was 135 on my old Honda 750 Interceptor.

115 on my Heritage somewhere in the middle of Wyoming. My bags were full and I had a TBAG loaded as well. That was with my stage 1. Since that she's gone under the knife. She'll do 100 in the quarter mile, but no new top speed runs yet...

According to GPS, 117 is top end on my FLHX. That was on a level road, no wind, and all she would do with several miles to build.
