I Wish my GPS had a max speed option.
I've seen 190-195 on the speedo a few times with my 05LE. What a rush.
If anyone knows about what that is in true speed I'd appreciate it.
Just so everyone knows I put a older 220 gauge cluster on my bike. Didn't want to get flamed.

I actually did several runs and each time I would hit the 186 spot on the speedo somewhere around 9700 rpms......it didn't get north of 180 on the gps until I was above 10200 and the 184mph came around 10600. Even though I have heard all the stories, I was really disappointed to find that my speedo is WAY off.....when I'm doing 80 on the speedo I'm really doing 75 and 180 is really 170......my guess even though i wasn't looking down at the speedo is that the 186 mark on the speedo is really about 172 to 174 on my bike.

195 on a bike factory setup for 185 is really like 155...
I don't mean to be funny, but do you have a TRE? I'm asking because I never got over 10,200 rpm's. On the road I do my runs on, I still have over a full mile of straight road after hitting 10,200. Even so, it has never gone past that.
spigga....no TRE, just two miles and a prayer for safety. I think one thing that may have helped is the fact that i'm 5'9" and weigh somewhere between 185 and 190 with full gear.
