About 125 MPH if you don't have the speed limter disabled. I know my Roadster would lay down at 125 before I had the limter disabled.

My Roadster does 175 on the dyno, but sadly in the real world, out on the byways under load for traveling, I can't get over 132.
Have not tried top end with bike naked and me not!

When stock I had it well past 125 after removing the limiter, I don't remember exactly where.
With the CES Iv been up over 150, but tune went a bit lean so I backed out of it. Bike was still pulling quite well around 150, I'd guess she'd have topped out in the 165-170 region. I was fully tucked behind my Angry Fly screen, dead stable, no wobbles, shakes, or vibrations.

So 135 mph would be practical with the limiter removed? So I was not seeing things. interesting.

Nope, it'll get there just takes a bit. Wallace racing calculator says the R3 with 125.5 hp would hit 135...my bike dynod 126 stock, so it seems my variables are about dead on using 0.9 cd, 7 cubic ft, 940lbs.

You don't want to doing that sort of speed naked. Get some wind under you junk and it gives a whole new meaning to the term tank slapper - as I'm pretty sure Jim would know.
