I don't know what "top speed" is but I've hit a buck-20 with an '07 Stage 1 96".

I had mine out the other day at 95 around 4 grand on the tach in 6th gear. It seemed like it didnt have any more to it.

It takes a lot of extra HP to push that barn door past 120. For some laughs read the other top speed thread.

I was wondering if something was wrong seeing how it was screaming at 95. I dont see how I could get it to 120.

Don't use 6th until you redline 5th. It should climb a little higher than 95.

With the batwing faring I would say a stock 96" and stock 4" windshield will top out at about 100mph with the average sized rider with no headwind.
