I have had mine up to 110 with a little throttle left but the vibration is a little scary after 105. Just returned from a 1200 mile trip and got 45-52 miles a gallon. Thats fully loaded with a windshield averageing 70mph. My old ladys V-STAR 1100 was busting out 55mpg on thre trip. Take care and God Bless. PS- remember I was talking a while back how I have been putting my Roadie through the ultimate tests. Well most recent is I let my Plugs go 15,000 miles and when I changed them they were still like new. Electrode just slightly rounded and all 4-plugs colored the same slight greyish tan.   Logged     Christian American Heterosexual Pro-Gun Conservative...Any Questions???

Junior Boarder Posts: 143 Re:Will roadstar go over 100? 4 Years, 8 Months ago   Yes ! And then some. Just seems to me it's how much you want to push it. It is just good to know all that power is available when you want it.Be careful and take care.   Logged     Last Edit: 2007/09/27 10:52 By charliez.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #43023 Monty (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 30 Re:Will roadstar go over 100? 4 Years, 8 Months ago   thing is, shes quite tricky to ride now,...you should better know what you´re doing when you pulling on the cable because of the high ape,... thats also the reason why i have the stock seat, i need that support when i accelerate,... but when you become used to it, its a lot of fun,...   Logged     Last Edit: 2007/09/27 17:56 By Monty.     The administrator has disabled public write access.
