"06 SG, 95" w/ head work, 10.5/1 Wiseco's, 577 cams, Rinehart's, PCIII, and open Big Sucker. It pulls right up to the needle stop and then some. Who cares about speedo error when you can flat bury the needle?

Got my '02 King up to 100 and backed off. Just wanted to see if she'd do it. Did it with no trouble. I was quite surprised.

'12 Street Glide, 110 on the speedo in fifth gear, plenty left to go, shifted to sixth and back off the throttle, fast enough for me. Fuel Moto's help, Jackpot 4" mufflers, FM Hi-flow air filter, PowerVision and Wood's TW-555 cams. The cool part is not about how fast it goes, but how quickly it gets there. Yee-hah!

This summer at Bonneville I did 193.6 mph on my 2011 Road Glide with a stock 96......... then my wife nudged me, and I woke up.

Faster than I need to or want to go.

110 in 6th. Should have down shifted, but 95 North in VA is NOT the place to being playing games.

Hell, they'll impound my bike and send me straight to jail for reckless endangerment (speed limit is 70, 110 is 1.5x the speed limit)

either way, it was fun, i just cant afford the ticket

Stock 96" Street Glide with Stage 1 air cleaner, Vance and Hines Pro Pipe and a Fuel Moto pre programmed PCV. This weekend I went on an unexpected but welcomed 600 mile one day road trip. Down on Interstate 91 going through the city I ran her to 100 for a couple of brief passing sessions. She hit that easily. Traffic was moving at a crazy 90+. That's as fast as I've ever had her and she had more to go but I don't know how much more? I can say that the fastest I have had her prior was about 85 and the front end did get a little light. I now have the Klock Werks windshield so heres another testament to that shield. Planted that front end to the pavement like it was on rails. Still amazes me that that little piece of plastic can make that much of a dramatic difference!
