I hit 100mph even a couple of weeks after I bought her and she was smooth and stable just like everyone here is describing.

The fastest I've gone is 165mph and that was on my Kawasaki ZX-10R. 163hp and 380lbs dry weight. She'll do 108mph in 1st gear before you hit the rev limiter... I tested it.... and she has 6 gears.

At 165mph the wind is incredible and you get tunnel vision. The bike was still pulling strong but I lost my nerve. I didn't see what rpm I was hitting but I could feel she had a ways to go before she hit the rev limiter.
