My 124 RK geared tall,with wife on back,gets to 120 mph too easy.On a calm day the windshield gives us no problems at all.Out on the Highway and passing trucks at 80 mph plus the windshield becomes very noticeable,I like it.

I've ridden the Street Glide, 2 EG classics, and 1 Road Glide (all rentals) and I felt like I could have read War and Peace by the time they went from 90 to 100. At 100 the bikes felt like they hit a brick wall. Maybe I'm used to my Jap rocket.....where the bike is sleeping at 100.
Oh and beautiful bike, Mountainkowboy! Damn she looks good!

I have to say that the stability of the touring bikes is amazing. Coming from a softtail and a dyna, 100+ feels great. I guess you can add me to the list of 100 club since I have had my 07 at 110 a few times

Been just over 100 with the wife on the back. It felt like there was plenty left. But then someone reminded me I shouldnt be running that fast [sm=bicker.gif]. These touring bike just love it when they can be rolling 90 and 100 MPH.

Haven't stuck the RKC into the triples yet. Need to try that one of these days. I do know that it's rock solid in the 90's.
I had my Vulcan up to 140, and I don't think the Venture had a top end. I ran out of nuts and had to back off before I found out. [

Had my 01 ultra at 180 KMS (about 111MPH) on November 25 of this year. Sert, SE breather, V&H pipes.
I can't wait to get the 95" and cams in!

This video isn't of a Harley going fast, but it's so unbelieveable it has to be watched.
Keep your eye on the speedometer when he comes down from the wheelie, never mind the ridiculous top speed.
