Got mine over 115mph and it's nearly 100% stock :naughty:
Didn't I read somewhere that the VX is governed to 105mph max? :_confused
115 is the limitQuote:

My brother got cited in her by CHP at 98 mph... the officer actually admitted to loosing him a couple of times (it was foggy).
And as long as we are mentioning personal bests; 172 mph on a GSXR 600, Highway 25 south of Hollister. :cooly:
I had mine up to a true 118 MPH - on the dynomometer ;)
I made sure the AC was off, had a stiff tail wind, heading downhill.... about 112 for about a minute.
Dang. Y'all make me feel like a whimp. I've never had the VX over 80.
awwww memories...........Quote:

It definately doesn't feel safe at that speed especially on our wonderful Alaskan highways.... but I made it from Anchorage to Kenai (155 miles) in under an hour and a half.... 2-3AM and another random speeder truck with me the entire way, was one of the funnest/fastest drives I have ever had.
Definitely not as fast as it could go with an LS1 Engine in it.......:rolly:, all jabs aside, any updates or progress with that project?Quote:

personal best... 160ish in my moms BMW 740IL on the 101NB... everyone was asleep after a fun filled day at Universal Studios and i was cruising home and I noticed I was passing cars left and right so I peek at the speedo and it's buried at 160! damn autobahn design... I didn't even feel the speed.. SOO glad I didn't get caught by any cops...
and while we're at it... funny story. I used to cruise highway 119/corridore G at 120 in my 93 4runner and one of those days a buddy of mine pulled up beside me in his fox body mustang and asked me how fast he was going cuz his speedo only hits 85 haha... then he took off
i used to have a suzuki gsx-r 750 race bike that i took up just over 195mph on the freeway out of houston.. that was fun....was going to quick i missed my exit..and 3 others....
180 km/h.
My tyres are rated to 100mph only, cought myself at just over 90 the other day...ooops !!!
