On the I-80 getting around a convoy, I nailed 125. Once out running a Harley, with wife in tow hit 120 until I got the knock on the back of the helmet also!
How fast have you ridden your Rocket III?

Funny thing. I read this post yesterday, stopped on the way home to gat gas when a local deputy pulled in behind me to get gas. He was quite interested in the bike and pormptly ask "How fast have you Gone?" Of course I said I can't tell you that, you're a cop! I finally came clean and addmitted 140mph, but in anther state.

That seems to be where that hand brake kicks in most times . .

130 on the speedo - bone stock bike so at -8% that's 119.6 MHP
Held that for about 10 minutes before the idea of Jonny Law came into my head.

120 mph speedo / 112 mph on GPS. Maxed out throttle, hitting the speed limiter on a '06 bone stock classic with roadster screen and beetle bags. Like many others, it took many attempts to keep from chickening out.
Wife found out when she saw the max speed memory on my GPS. She was not amused. I reset it after each ride now.

Speed limited
I just got the courage to try last weekend, 125 and the limiter kicked in. Lot's of rpm's left. I think the speedo is correct.
100 is a plenty for me, not much time to react to anything
