Im not sure of the traffic laws in ur state, but in Pennsylvania if ur cited for over double the speed limit its automatic that you lose ur licence for 90 days. If ur clocked at over 130 mph in a 65 mph zone, ur going to either have to take the bus of have the old lady drive you to work.

my fathers atv (not stock) could do 120 with him on it (he weighed 350lbs at the time) and with my brother on it could do 160. in the woods however is not believeable because of the instability of not knowing whats around the next corner.

as for fastest I have ever gone well that would be 150 in my parents porsche 911 turbo they used to own. on my bike 110 which is in my sig.

I have a friend who got pulled over for doing 140 in a 55. Dont ask me why/how or why he didnt run cause im not sure nor do I know what brand of bike he was on (was like 12 years ago) and he got a $300 fine and like 30 days in jail.

Depends on if you have a windshield on or not... I've got the Memphis Fats windshield, and on, my bike (stock) will do 100 MPH, but with it off, (stock), it'll do around 85-95 depending on how you're sitting...

82 seca 550- 114 mph...speedo only goes to 85.

81 kz659- 123mph...again speedo only goes to 85.

so these are ruff estimates based on riders with me that had higher speedos.

oh yeah...thats all the faster they would go.
