Gummi, what you didn't point out is the parachute effect will lift your lower body from the bike and suspend you in the windstream. This is a more aerodynamic configuration, and will clearly enable your Harley to go at least 200mph.

Ooohh, the "Rollie Free" effect - I hadn't thought about that one!

The amount it would cost to regear a transmission like that would be enough to let you buy two 1000cc bikes.

Custom exhaust will add MAYBE 10hp. And you can gain some top end if you were too alter the final drive gearing you could gain some top end... if the engine were capable of supporting it.

NOW, if you were too maybe overbore the engine, install high-lift cams, high compression pistons, full exhaust, remove the airbox, retune the FI map, alter the final drive gearing, and then slap a nitrous bottle on it...

How much does it cost to replace your transmission?

(side q) Would be about an hours worth of labor to replace a clutch?
