I loaded a new map on my TomTom and therefore all the old datas have disapeared , The max high speed in stock configuration with Windvest 12" and HD signature seat at 6.1 height is :
209 km/h that means 129.8 mph ( when i transformed correctly ) .

But i cannot explain why , you tuned guys should be faster than me , your dyno numbers show mor hp and more torque , or don`t you pull your throttle upto the possible end ?
Can someone explain to me ? Mysterious .

Not to spoil the competition, but I can run the GPS in my car and clock 204 mp/h. Then take a picture ... Going for the speedometer is also not good, since it is dangerous to take the picture and the speedometers in our bikes run up to 6% fast. Anyone with a better solution?

Ride safely,
Louis

PS 1: @Highjagger - SAE hp and lbs. torque are difficult to compare vs. kW and nm. Also the factory values are measured at the tranny, while we measure on Dynojets at the rear wheel.

PS 2: I can, by the way, do the 204 mp/h legally ;-)

^{204 mp/h}
That would be worth to see .
 You mean 204 km/h , i guess .

I take this http://www.boltscience.com/pages/convert.htm for transforming , but nevertheless the dynoed bikes do have more power definitely and do not run faster , i wonder why .

Making a faked pic of a gps max high speed does not make sense , we are not 18 year old kids anymore .


<sup>Have had the 5k service today and asked about the dynonumbers at the dealer .
 Now i am ashamed or angry or dissapointed or motivated - i do not really know what i am , here they are , messured at the rear wheel : 81 PS and 129 Nm  

FYI: For those who are more familiar with the American nomenclature, this would translate to 79.9 HP and 95.1 LB-FT.

Highjagger, while those numbers might seem a little low compared to the numbers reported by folks here in the states, that doesn't necessarily mean there's anything wrong with your bike.  Isn't the intake and exhaust different on the Euro spec bikes?  Also, what kind of dynomometer did your dealer use?

btw, the chart in the Screamin' Eagle catalog for the U.S. version 110 kit claims numbers of approximately 80 HP and 95 LB-FT.  Is this where the dealer got his information, or did he actually dyno your bike?  If he actually dyno'ed it, it appears he came up with exactly the same numbers Harley published for a totally stock and legal 110.

I've read some bold claims in this thread. I've been riding for a long time, have owned a couple of 120" hot rod baggers, as well as a 120" Confederate America GT that weighed under 500 lbs. None of them ever saw 140 MPH, although of the three, the Confederate may have been capable on a 5 mile WOT run, but that was no bagger.

AMA World's Fastest Bagger record by Laura Klock stands at 153.591 MPH in the 3000cc Modified Partial Streamliner, Pushrod Fuel category, that's not your father's bagger, and it's not running on pump gas!

Claims in excess of 140 MPH on a street bagger remain suspect in my book. Gonna have to do more than claim you went that fast or just post a picture of a GPS screen. I'd welcome any factual evidence to include build specs for such claims.

i tend to agree with you. My stock 110 glide was about maxed out at 124 mph. My ultra with the jims 120 wasnt much better on top end.

How about a v-rod? I think mine would hit 140. I'm just not sure my nards are big enough. It's been wanting to get into that wobble over 115-120.

Thing is if i rode it 140 and i said i did..(which i didn't) it'd be good enough for me.

[HogBreath]

I guess what i'm saying .. If i said i did, i did. Not trying to prove anything to anyone. Everyone here already knows im nuts. And they also know my word is my bond.
