Good Morning to all on the site!
I have a ‘99 FLHTCU-I with a Hannigan trike. This is my first Harley. I’ve always had Honda Gold Wings and Valkyries.
My question is: My MPH top end is 70MPH. Wide open that’s all I’ve got! I’ve looked and saw that the throttle blade is open as far as it can be with the throttle wide open. The bike has 31K miles on it. It was previously owned by two elderly gentle men (one after another) so it’s not been abused. I believe the motor is the 88 cu.in version. The trike kit adds about 300lbs. to the whole rig. I’m 200-ish lbs. Am I expecting more out of what I have? I’m not trying to set a land speed record or anything but would like to at least keep up with traffic! Any info about this will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Larry in East China Mi.
