I can cruise 85-95 with room to spare all day long.
100+ no sweat.
I don't have a "rushmore" though.
I do live in the "rushmore" state though.
Maybe that's why I can go so fast, lololol.

I've checked my speedo up to 70 MPH with those radar-speed-readout signs and it seems to be spot-on.

I have taken my '14 Limited to 115 briefly several times. Seems like it will never exceed that, despite being in the middle of the power band and excellent road and weather conditions. It feels like there is a speed limiter engaging.

on weekends with the guys I ride with, we cruise the highways at 80-85 (speed limits out there are 75-80), hit 95 one time passing a semi. the bike feels smooth and stable at those speeds but 70-75 is my preferred comfort zone.
