For clarification, yes they limited the "GA" (the one you saw with the Tour Pack) to 105 because of the Tour Pack, although I did see 110 with mine. I rarely drove over 90.
Likely didn't publish it, and don't recall (or care) but 1 season later I traded the GA for the "B" series, same bike, but didn't have a Tour Pack, a year newer programming and a higher speed limiter. I had that bike to 125 before shutting the throttle down. For a touring bike, there was nothing quicker on the road when you spun up that 6 cylinder. I won't sell that bike short, it would make you hang on and your **** pucker.
In the end it wasn't a fit for the type of riding I really wanted to do, which the RG is perfectly suited for.

Let me clarify:
"For a touring bike, There was nothing quicker on the road when you spun up that 6 cylinder".
