132 on the gps with throttle to spare but no extra road to spare. into the 120's regulary. Generally over 100. ALL WITH NO WOBBLE and pilot 2's. the tires have made a big difference.

How fast have you had your ST?
- Thread starter Roadrunner
- Start date
Wife finds out you were out riding who you weren't supposed to be.........done.
There, fixed that for you...
......and what kind of gear do you have on that is going to save your a** at that speed?
You might just as well be dressed as one of my pirate friends you make fun of at that speed. Sometimes the whole ATGATT escapes my logic when I read posts like this. Do we want to die being "laid back and loud" or "all the gear, all the time"? You still won't be more than a greasy spot on the highway just like all of the dead racoons I see on the road right now.
Thanks though for letting me know what my ST might be capable of.

Raccoons ride motorcycles at excessive speeds too? Who knew
75. Because that's the speed limit officer.

134mph on the GPS, loaded with camping gear and top box on 395 in northern CA. A little floaty at 120, but smoothed out after that.
Sea level, standard day, 280lb pilot:
'08 ST1300 mach 1.47 indicated (rock solid no stability issues)
'98 CB750 mach 1.15 indicated (Oh God how I love dusting off new Harleys on a 12 year old
bike with half the displacement)

Russ...:shock:
Mach 1.47 = 1119 miles per hour
Mach 1.15 = 875 miles per hour
:bow1:
Uhhhhhh, make that MPH. The LEOs all know what a fibber I am (World's Fastest Liar). I still love Harley dusting on the CB750. The old girl puts a grin on my clock everytime.
I've had my ST up to 200k's. I found that you have to lower the screen and tuck yourself in behind it. You get less wobbles. I was amazed how easy it accelerated.

Last weekend saw 124 GPS indicated before I ran out of straight road. Not bad for an old ST1100 - It wil go faster just need to find a longer straight road.
Got mine up to at least 67 mph several times. No wobble, either. :woo 
Just take it up over a hundred now and then. Not interested in setting any land speed records but I'm kinda impressed by those that are.
I enjoy a nice twisty road more than flat out speed but I don't blame those that want to fly...
