I hit 153 on mine B4 my sprocket change and that takes into account that my speedo was about 7mph off at the time. top speed so far with sprocket change and speedo healer is 140.

I've hit 165 without the speedo healer. So figure about 150 maybe. I was completely on it.

If your completely stock ... your oem factory speedometer can be off by as much as 10%. Maybe more sometimes. That's just the way it is.

Even if you go to different sized tires, your speedometer reading is affected. (just like cars) Don't worry though, you still get accurate reading until you reach higher speeds. 100+

That's good to know. I didn't know the stock speedo was off by that much.
