One more thing: this was off my gps, and the elevation is correct.

Been faster on a friends bmw s1000rr, race prepped, chasing him on his desmosedici, nope, never caught up!
Had to stop to clean out shorts.

I have heard that the M8's are limited to 107mph, but that is what I heard. I have had my 2013 to 125mph a couple of times, but that is indicated and who knows what that really is.

This is the most accurate way of seeing how fast you are really going. I think there is a +/- of 3 KM's with a GPS. HD Speedo's can be off by 20 KM's sometimes more.The Harley speedo's are junk.

A buddy on his 2010 ultra with a 96 CI took a picture of his speedo showing 190 KM. The Zumo 660 GPS says MAX Speed 168 KM. My 2011 CVO SG speedo showed a top speed of 210 KM. My Zumo 665 GPS says MAX Speed 186 KM.

My speedo only goes to 120, but have hit that with the tach still climbing. Very rare for me to do that as it just doesn't feel real steady. But I also love smoking all of my friends. :)

The M8 is speed limited to 107 mph, on all engine sizes, 107, 114 and 117.  They are also RPM limited.  The HD tuners will not remove this.  TTS and others will.

The twin cam motors were not speed limited.

the bike i traded in for my 19 cvo was a 16 cvo street glide with a built 124 motor. i was paced by a zx14 doing 150. i ran out of room on the highway (cars) but felt it was still pulling so once i got more room again i hammered down and got to 153. then the death wobble happened. handlebars were going side to side very violently until i got it down to 70ish and it stopped. all my friends behind me slowed down so they wouldnt run me over. never went that fast again on that harley nor do i think i will attempt that again. i seriously thought i was dead.

Generally i just ride the back roads, but checked radar and a pretty big trw was approaching from the west, so i hopped on 95 and took her up to 75 mph, the speed limit, turned on the cruise control and settled back and no one was around me for at least 300 yards so i stayed put and the bike wasn't even breathing hard, it seemed to like that speed, don't remember the rpm, but it could have stayed there until fuel burn out.

So i know it will do 75 all day.

Oh and beat the storm and didn't get wet, actually the bike has never been wet. :)

An how many MPH is your speedmeter low?  All harleys I have owned at 80 mph are only doing 77 mph.

Seems that all the reputable tuners will tell you 107 mph for the M8.  Saw it when my M8's were tuned.  I also saw the speed governor removed

Cant say for sure on a 19, but I know for a fact on a 17 and a 18.  I also understand European bikes do not have the governor.

 107's are speed limited to 107mph. The 2017 CVO 114's are speed limited to 114. Clever huh?
I cannot speak to the 18 and 19 CVO' with the 117" though.
