find your rev limiter and WOT in every gear until right before it. you'll get there quicker. my bone stock 03 reads:

110 = 100gps
186 = 172gps

and welcome to H.org

Speedo is wrong, but can be corrected for about $100 with a SpeedoHealer or Yellow Box. Takes a little programming, but you can get it pretty close to accurate using a GPS. You were probably doing in the mid to high 160MPH range. Do like WWJD said to get to 186 faster.

Go up one tooth on the front sprocket. That will correct it. Then you'll be pulling 184-186 @10,500. Get a TRE, or EMS to remove the 6th gear limit, you'll be setup for about 192 MPH.

Where in the heck are you doing that? Hopefully not on public roads (atleast not with traffic).
