Wondering about top speed the last sat. night I finally got the nerve to let it go. Lonely stretch of highway around 12am pretty straight shot. Got to 110 and crouched down some more came up on 115 got down as much as possible to slip stream behind my tiny p.o.s windshield and hit 117-118 kept at that for a min or so then gave up.

I've had my GS redlined or maybe even a little beyond it (you know, when it starts to make all the bad noises) in 6th gear on a racetrack.  I once calculated top speed at redline in 6th gear to be 129-130mph.  Mods were full fairing, full Hindle exhaust and Factory jet kit, good for 43hp.

Well I tried this with my wife on the back yesterday.  I was only able to get it up about about 96mph in 6th gear.  I think I could have gone faster if I dropped it into 5th and redlined it.

ASLAM.

96gs

I did 90 today in 4th gear. Hit it as hard as i could and the GS actually has real good git-up and go.....well compared to most cars that is. hehe
