118 mph

MPH x 1.61= KM per hour

KM per hour x 0.62 = mph

guaranteed results I maxed out at 115 before I chickened out and backed off the throttle. I got clocked by a cop doing 103 but only managed to get a warning too once. He rode too, said he understood but just to slow it down.

Re:Will roadstar go over 100? 4 Years, 8 Months ago  
You guys need to remember theres like an 8% to 10% eror in the speedo on a stock bike, Use a GPS, I did it with stock gearing and the speedo said 110 and the GPS said 101 MPH..... I noticed the higher the speed more eror there is... now when the speedo said 70 MPH the GPS said 68. Now with pipes, BAK, Dyna 3000, I hit on the GPS 110 MPH and I did not have much more maybe 2 more MPH....

Re:Will roadstar go over 100? 4 Years, 8 Months ago  
yap, these are the same mods that i did,...i also put in the barons piston-kit 10,5 : 1

i have 81 HP on the rear wheel, tested on a dyno,...

my problem is that the stock speedo ends at 190 KpH / 120 MpH,...but i like the classic look of the speedo,...
i actually donīt knoww how fast my bike is, maybe 200 KpH

i will put on a digital speedo to see what she runs,...
