Honestly 110-120 is really tops on these bikes, definitely more motor than tranny gears. Even with a 33t front pulley i can't get mine above 115mph. On the other hand my buddies vrod will pull for days i hit 110 without evem trying.
I don't know how fast mine goes but i can hit the rev limiter easy and fast with the motor mods i have now. I think mine will do 130 mph with the pistons and PR cams. I know before it took for ever for it to get up to speed when it was stock, but it is a different bike with the motor mods and Ivan's flash. I weigh 165 right now.
I used to be able to hit 120mph with bigshots installed but since i switched to HK shorties it won't go that fast anymore but it's quicker thru the gears.
I've had mine to 130 on the speedo, but sometimes it doesn't want to go more than 120. I'm sure it has a lot to do with the weather, wind, road, and amount of open space.
I have had mine at actual 133 mph. That is with Stage IV kit ( mostly) and a 33 tooth pulley at the time - and that was flying in formation with three buddies on Harleys - for quite a stretch!
