Posts: 2300 Georgia, west of Atlanta | I've been seeing alot of dyno graphs where Visions with various pipes and of course cam, ecm and airbox change make between 110- 116 HP. How fast does it make a Vision ?? I'm guessing around 135mph ?? Any other fast bagger riders out there? My old RoadGlide with 80 HP will go 118 mph by the speedometer. |

Don't get me wrong; as I am known to ride way faster then my angels. I pretty much hit a ton everytime I hop on my bike. However running well above the rated top speed of tires, and far above the condition of most daily ridden bikes. Is not IMHO a real good idea |

Posts: 849 , FL United States | I agree with Kevinx. Why exactly does anyone want to exceed the recommended top speed of their bike? I have found that even on the Interstate highways, speeds above 100 mph are not really safe considering the condition of most of our roads. And that's not even mentioning the other "fools" who you are sharing the roads with ! IMHO |

Posts: 2300 Georgia, west of Atlanta | Sometimes I like to see how fast things will go, that's my preference. H rated tires are good for continuous speed of 130 and V rated tires to 149 mph. Gotta pick the right pasture to play in ya see........... |

| But what is the conditions of the bearings on the bike high speed bikes replace all the little parts on a more continous basis. Not to mention that damn sand truck that is loosing its load all over the highway 3 miles ahead of you I will admit I have pushed the limits a few times but there is a time and a place to do that.
Hey Kevin the cams are still awesome.... |
