Top speed on your Touring?

I rode my V8 Chopper at 152 mph at 5480 rpm's with no windshield. My R3T goes right to 100 very quickly with no handling problems. I just haven't rode it fast yet but I will when the opportunity arrives.
 
Fear not big words, lest ye have a diminutive mind! That's what for we have dictionaries.

"Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp,
Or what's a heaven for?"

Why everybody knows . . . heaven is for 72 VIRGINS!!!
 
I also have the little Boulevard Peak, I think I tried a run with that if I recall, and it was considerably lessened, but still there. There aren't always a lot of opportunities to do 140 mph. ;)

A few years back at one of the RAA meets at Maggie Valley on of the captains had a wee accident on his R3T he went off the road not in a curve but on a straight part of the road, anyhoo he was to shaken up to ride the bike back so we piled him into the support vehicle then me and steve Cowherd went back to get his bike, after spinning the rooster around so I was sitting on its face and making sure that the ants were sleeping I took off for the motel, now I had that bike hitting the 120 mark quite a few times in fact I was back at the motel five minutes before I left.:D
