top speed

[wibsdogg]

Had mine to 125...130 wasn't really that bad....little shakey. But 95 to a 100 is smooth as glass. A buddy of mine gave me shit last summer cause we were running around 90 and I was drinkin a coke.

I refuse to comment on the grounds that it would incriminate me! Been riding a very long time and have done all I want to do and then some while feeling the rush of speed. Lived to see another day on many occasion, sometimes you just got to count your blessings.

Had the BD up to about 125-130, front gets a little squirrelly, lots of head shake... I don't mind cruising along at 90-105 but much more is just not what these bikes are designed for.

I have had several sport bikes and have had all of them in the 160+ range on the "open roads..." I had a highly modified Ducati up to 181 on the front straight at MMP. But these bikes are built for it. The are designed with minimal rake, steering dampeners/stabilizers, low travel suspension, etc.... Now days....even at only 29, I try to keep anything over 90, be it car or cycle, to the track!

I think I’ll take the chopper to Bonneville and set a world record!!! Fastest Beam drinker on a Chopper!

Damn BALLS are BIG on this site Give me a closed road and i will top mine out,i'm to freaking scared of cops...

Pegged speedo wide open for around 6 seconds today...thinking it was around 125-130...way too fast on the dog in my opinion!

I try to tap at least 100 every time I ride, I have a long two lane streatch close to home I depending on traffic I stretch it on the way home!

I cannot afford to lose my cdl job, so my speeds have dropped considerably.
Yet, I got other toys to quench the spd need.

Will say though there is nothing beeter than pulling away from some hot dog on a HD with a full load of camp gear on the scoot.

I hear that, if I loose my license I loose my job too. Just have to find the right place. We have lots of out of the way strait azz roads here so it aint to hard to find a place to zip it up! I have the "Safe Driver" on my license for about 15 years!!! What they don’t know wont hurt them right???

All I know is my 07 Mastiff speedo only goes to 120 and the needle will hit the trip reset button shortly after the shift into 6th and pull for more.

Yes the delight of pulling WAY past 100 while a few Harley riders are TRYING to catch you is priceless "MANY TIMES"....OF course I would not attempt fool hardy stunts like this !

maybe you guys got some well built bikes off the assembly line or something,or are delusional with your everlasting love for these bikes,but at 100 mph my 07 chopper is not stable,it is vibrating like a freaking unbalanced clothes dryer,the handlebars are wobbling,the mirrors cant even be seen,my feet want to come off the pegs and my teeth are chattering and i am feeling for real what it is to be holding on to and for dear life..........it is not a fun feeling ,nor an enjoyable one for me....god bless you all......

Whoopie, that's like comparing go 200mph in a Ferrari vs. a stock car. 180 on a sport bike is safer than 140 on a chopper. I'll never do it again.

You might have some problems with your bike ? with the exception of the mirrors "I'm not looking behind me at that speed so the blurry vision is of no concern" Your feet want to come off the pegs cause your in a 100mph wind Hang on Dam it!!!! ..your teeth are chattering cause ..well if you fall off wearing just a tee shirt you know your about to get fucked up A shot or two of liquid bravery will take care of most of your problems . My 07 will shake a bit going into turns in the triple digits could be just the nature of the extended front end? Just grab another gear ...you don't really want to spend your golden years in the old folks home with some snot nose wiping your ass do you?
