OK before anyone flames me, I realize the following...
1. No I shouldn't be riding over 90.
2. I know it's not a sport bike.
3. I can't afford to spend more $$


Now the question/problem....
I was out riding the other day and had an urge to really open it up and see what happened. I get to about 75 in 5th, shift to 6th, climb fairly rapidly to 85 and it very slowly climbs to 89 or 90 and I can't get it to go any faster??? This leads to several trials at attempting to get it over 90 and the only time I did was when I was going down hill and then it only got up to 92. As a matter of fact, at full throttle, it actually slowed down until I let off the throttle a little.
Here's my set up. 96" stage 2 (SE 255 cam) SE tuner.
I really just want to know if this is normal. I never attempted to take it over 90 stock or just as a stage 1.

 

I hit 100 this afternoon on a stock 2010 UC with EXIEDS-10 it felt like it could have a little more

 

Not sayin Im a speed demon by no means, but Ive had my 09 King (96 with only a stage I) into the triple digits with no problems.

 

Bummer! I have heard of this before. I believe it was on here, and it was an 09'RK.
I've seen my stock 88ci 06' Standard bump a ton on the gauge quick enough for me one time, and that was enough entertainment. I do wish the bike felt more stable at that speed but maybe one day! I don't ride up there, so it's not much of an issue.

I've read on this forum in other threads that you will achieve a higher top speed if you stay in 5th gear. I've hit 100 on my '08 SG with no problem but I don't remember if it was in 5th or 6th gear. Still felt like she had more to give, but I didn't need it.

 

Also have a stock 06 standard and it will most definitely run over the century mark, but not by much.

 

What is EXIEDS-10? I googled it, but nothing came up.

 

My Road King passed the 100 mph test(that's good enough for me).
It will attain the speed limit in a flash.
It will out accelerate 99% of the cages on the road.
I'm good to go!

 

Keep in mind that the HD speedos are not accurate. What the speedo says vs. real speed are two different things.

My speedo is the opposite of yours. It says I am going over 100 mph when the gps lets me know I am not there yet.

When my speedo if pegged as if I was going 120+mph, I am down there at 109 or so.

If you are going by HD speedo only, you don't really know how fast you are going.

Riding conditions, and the map on your bike play a large part in top speed. I've had several top speeds on the same bike. even hit a buck twenty once, with a 40 mph tail wind.
