    Default Top End Speed

    Has anyone figured out what to expect for top end speed. I have done the tts2 tuner, rush true duals, rush mufflers, and big sucker air intake. Thanks

    I clipped 95 while passing a car and pulling my Aluma MCT trailer, but then mine wasn't stock.

    I've had my TG up over 110 mph climbing to 115 before letting off the throttle, I did this several times without any problems and steady as a rock, but the TG was in my trailer being pulled by my friends hopped-up turbo diesel truck!! pepper



    I sure hope this doesn't get me another "really" and a red dot on my reputation, it's a joke, only a joke

    Same in Houston. If you can't run 80 - 90 on the slab you may become a hood ornament on an 18 wheeler. And I see 95 occasionally. But watch the brake lights ahead of you as they top the next overpass. Not long after the CSC conversion I ran 95 on a stock 2012 Electra Glide and that wasn't maxed out. Haven't tried for max since I had the Stage 1 done. Maybe some quite Sunday morning.

    A good friend claimed he hit 115 on a stock 2010 TG.

    I’m getting to this post very late but my 1999 FLHTCU-I with a Hannigan trike kit will only do 75 MPH (on GPS) with wide open throttle! My bike has the 88 Cu In. engine.

    Is this all I should be expecting?

    What RPM are you turning @ that speed?

    Gearing ( pulleys) and tranny gears plus a different cam could be a plus

    If this is a stock 88 Twin Cam you will want to be looking @ the cam chain shoes soon
