When running the Super Slab I keep her in the sweet spot of 85mph. But when I am corrupted by Jerry & Jack we seem to hit triple digits pretty often  Grin

Moof, I'm glad to see that your Valk gets a little squirrelly above 90 too.  I switched to Metzler tires and I noticed that.  My never exceed speed (Vne) is 90 on my Fat Lady.

However, I've driven 110 and ridden 120 back in the early 70's.

Oh yea, I heard that taking off the windscreen reduces that squirrely feeling...

Not so Fast Eddie...

In a remote section of the Texas Hill Country driving the quickest motorcycle made in 1984 I popped over a hill and before me was the perfect mile or two of a straight 10% downhill grade--I thought I would getter going but then was too scared to look down to see what it was doing--that football field in less than 1 1/ 2 seconds sounds fun until you try it on a motorcycle--my Zo6 Corvette at The Big Bend Open Road Race--a closed highway course-those speeds were a yawner...I was .32 seconds off my 2 way speed runs at 140-145 ave speed runs for 3rd in my class and 15th overall
