No, 997 turbo.

;-))

Ride safely,
Louis

My 997 Turbo runs out of steam at 190mph, but it gets there quick.

[CR]

Tacho of my SERK 2008 showed 130 mph (not exactly stable at that speed but might have something to do with larger windscreen, enough to consider switching to a 2009 model though, but no RK), but Garmin Zumo recorded only topspeed of 115 mph. This is slightly disappointing with the SEAC and PCV and actually less than recorded in stock form. Topspeed is not really that important to me but I like to verify the tuner's dynoclaims with it. When it is fast appearently teh tuning is OK. To me it is incomprehensible that I gained more than 15 hp on the dynosheet and the bike is slower! Apart from the money you spend you get the feeling half of them do not know what they are talking about. A lot of people get screwed this way I reckon. I am going to get Autotune next so I can make sure that the bike is on 13 AFR at 4500 rpm in 6 and makes optimum power! Anyone with comparable experiences? Could roadglide be faster because of aerodynamics? Claims of 150 mph would at least need 150 rwhp with poor aerodynamics (a BMW 150 hp+ K1200GT with efficient fairing will get to 150 mph)  and I seriously doubt that a CVO will get that without very serious modifications.

The Road Glide fairing is reported to have better aerodynamics compared to the Bat Wing fairing.  AMA World's Fastest Bagger record stands at 153.591 MPH in the 3000cc Modified Partial Streamliner, Pushrod Fuel category. It's a highly modified Road Glide with swing arm stabilizers, steering dampers, carbon fiber wheels, modified fairing, fender, fuel tank, driveline, and a S&S race motor in the 180 HP neighborhood.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

That fairing looks highly modified.
Do you know of a site that has the specs on that bike.
Me and another guy on this site are very interested in frames that are stable!

Good eye Chip. That's why it runs as MPS (modified partial streamliner). There used to be full details of the bike on the Klock Werks website, but since the WFB is also used to showcase Klock Werks custom bagger parts, it's hard to find the specs for the bike in race trim.

How bout this guy?!!!

"S&S Sponsored Bagger Sets New SCTA Bonneville Record

Chris Rivas piloted his official S&S Cycle sponsored entry in the Bonneville Speed Week August 8-14 on a Motorcycle that was built as a combined effort between S&S Cycle and Chris Rivas V-Twin in Fresno, CA.  The entry has also welcomed Carl Brouhard Designs, CP Pistons and Sagar Innovations to be a part of the effort.  Current Bonneville record holder and S&S Cycle's Engineering Manager Jeff Bailey, Steve Rominski, Rob Shopft as well as many other employees at S&S Cycle have been a key component with technical advice and engine parts configuration.

The SCTA requires that every driver make a rookie run on the first time down the salt which requires a minimum of speed 120 but not to exceed 150 mph, (previous class record was 146).  The big touring bike made so much power that when the first marker was in sight the speed was already 150 so the speed was maintained in order to complete the licensing phase of the weekend.  Much to the crews delight and just as planned the S&S cycle entry broke the record on the first rookie run “off the trailer”.  The next day Chris had to make the return run and went 153 in order to establish a new record at 152.197 mph.  After the final inspections were completed for the new record the decision was made to re-register for a different class APS-PG and put the good tune up in it.  The first run in the new class was timed at 158 mph, (previous record was 120).  The next day on the return run 161 mph was achieved in order to establish a new record at 159.620 mph.
   
“What a great experience, I think some of that salt got into my blood while I was out there”, said Chris Rivas.  So here is the countdown:  5  Sponsors to thank.. S&S Cycle, Carl Brouhard Designs, CP Pistons, Sagar Innovations, Chris Rivas V-Twin  4  Months of building  3  days of racing  2  records  1  Street driven Bagger (the new Worlds Fastest Bagger).  3000cc MPS-PG 152 MPH & 3000cc APS-PG 159 MPH.  A top speed of 164 was recorded in the middle of the course on a full dress Bagger with saddle bags, stereo and cruise control, now that is proven performance!  Keep an eye on this team as they perform a few improvements on the bike for the upcoming Bubs Speed Trials event where the team will try to better their own previous speeds & records."

[09S/E roadglide]

Thats over 180 c.i.  !!  bad to the bone 

[SBB]

As we all know, , , , we here at CVOHarley are partial to Screamin Eagles.
I think a 09 Screamin Eagle Road Glide would be ideal for a "fastest bagger" try.
Any donor bikes?
Rick
Howie (the good one of course)
Bob
Dave
Greg (both)
Don
etc.

All we need is one good bike and about 14K in cash for the mods.
Any donors?

Dont know if I could part with my chrome !

Dont know if I could part with my chrome !

If I get to keep the go-fast parts you can use mine!
