Maximum speed in gears @ redline: (1) 49, (2) 71, (3) 89, (4) 106, (5) 127, (6) 147 I've gone about that fast in a car (142) but don't have the guts to try it on a bike. That was several years ago too, I might not have the guts to do that in a car anymore either. I'll never find out as long as I'm driving the tacoma ;) Fastest my bike has gone was 90mph and that was only briefly. For the most part I keep it between 70-80 which is normal cruising speed of Houston traffic. That works fine for me. -Kyle On Fri, Sep 17, 2010 at 10:53 AM, Kurt Nolte <vturbine.po...@gmail.com> wrote: According to calculations, my stock geared, stock sprocketed '93 with a 150/70/R17 on the back end will top out at 131mph. I don't think she'd like it very much up there, I know I wouldn't. Roads around here are crap, lots of transitions and dips from all the patches laid down in lieu of actual repaving. -Kurt On Fri, Sep 17, 2010 at 11:46 AM, Kyle Munz <kyle...@gmail.com> wrote: > I wonder what the top speed of our bikes are.
