Personally I'd never try to ride one that fast

Never tried top speed. I cant imagine it's much fun over a 100. Be hanging on with that wind

I’ve seen the limited 147 mph on my TFC. There is not much use for that amount of speed on the road. It’s how fast you reach 100+ that counts for me.

How much speed to you figure we lost on the 155 mph run due to wheel slip?

If we had the traction I think we could have got 160 mph out of it.

One of these days we need to try it again in Mexico with a GPS on a two mile run, just to know what the difference on pavement is per a GPS.

I would like that. Take my Rocket too.
