Mine has 107,xxx miles on it.

BTW, it does the ton, with the following disclaimer:

on a closed course with a professional rider.

That's all I'll admit.

No,,,it's in MPH. I had another one jump to 267, in my pickup. I heard that it was changing satellites, but I was going fast enough that it changed so quickly it jumped up the speed.

Hmm.. maybe your ST needs a tune-up? as they will post a 0-60 of less then 4. Exit the 1/4 mile at 120 too.

I kind of estimated those numbers.... I am so used to riding 2 up it just doesnt have that blinding acceleration the V's did.... I better take it out today with just me and see what happens...

135 indicated and rock solid. I think my cut down stock shield and no top case helps.

I've had mine (2000 ST1100) to 190 km/hr and still pulling relatively strong.

The State Trooper said 102, I said to myself, "I'll take it!".

Two weeks ago, I went on a fantastic trip with 12 Big bikes on my Honda SilverWing 600 cc automatic and on a slight down hill with still power to go, I was at 110 mph and have many times looked down on a straight road and looked at 105 mph on my speed.
Now that I bought a 02 1100, with only 40.000 miles on it, I cant wait to see what it can do after I learn how to change gears.:cop2:

146mph indicated but would never try that on the highway! I would never break the law.

 

[Gearjammer]

120 when I panicked and closed my eyes so it might be more.

I have done 126 passing a semi throwing rocks. However, when I was at the PD buying my bike, one of the motorcycle cops said they got one of their 1300s (not mine) up to 153 trying to catch up to a pursuit. I'm not sure how true it is, but that's fast.

I thought ST1300P's had a speed limiter?

Ohh.. never mind. Looks like it was removed for 2009 and up

Most I have had a ST1300 up to was 112mph on my '05, in the desert coming home from a long trip.

On the trip with my sons, I got my 2010 up to 107 once, between Kingman and Oatman.

Both od these were brief moments, after my crash in 1987 at 65mph after getting it down from 85mph, speed just isn't something I push too hard. 4:

I am one in the touring/cruising club. I don't need to go all that fast to enjoy the ride. But I have had my ST1100 up to around 90 once and my CTX1300 up to 85 once just to see how they rode at faster than I usually go. I usually don't ever see over 4000 rpm, 75 mph, and most often run on the highways between 3250-3500 rpm, 60-65 mph, where those little white and black signs say to. Even at 85 mph I was getting around 37-38 mpg. and went up to 85 mpg when I backed off.
