Last year at the 50th between Bolling Green and Nashville, About five of us were doing a sustained 125MPH 80% of the way and then back.

150 a couple of times on I-77 wee hours of the morning...no traffic between exits #33 and #30 here in NC...water on both sides of the interstate. 170 on one of my former bikes...but I know...that's not the topic.

164 for me, with a suprise. It was actually when I had first gotten it and I had my cousin with me. He told me lets see what this thing can do, so I took it up to about 100-100. He laughed and said no lets see what this thing can really do, so thats when I blasted up to that speed. When I went to pull down there was a cop sitting there. So I waited for him to go before I turned and he wouldn't move. So finally after about a minute of waiting I finally went. When I turned, he turned behind me with his lights on. My nuts went in my throat :bang: I told my cousin he would be drivng my car home because I was going to jail. Next thing I know cop moves over, gets next to me, stares at me for a while and then takes off. I'm not sure if he didn't clock me or if he was just being cool since there was no one on the road, but whatever it was

Over 150 on the track and probably about 120 on the street. I don't like to push the top speed on the street. I cherish my drivers license and low insurance rates too much to screw around on the street. I like the 5 mph to 80 mph blasts better on the street.
