Anyone found a top speed on the FJR1300....(2006 or other)???

With/Without Bags?

My previous Blackbird would do 170mph and FZ1 was 154mph (GPS speed)

 
Uh Oh....here we go again.

Do a SEARCH my friend.

Was I helpful Iggy?

so say people on this site, somewhere around 155 if I remember correctly.

google.com says 152 w/o bags and 149 w/bags. Plus google.com knows everything.

Curiously, mine tops out at the posted speed limit. :rolleyes:

Since that one would probably be a bit hard to find......reports vary by owner. GPS reports vary from 142 as a low top speed ('05) to 162 as a high top speed ('04) with most reporting in the 149 to 152 range. I've seen 149 on level ground with bags, big lights, and loaded. I saw 152 on a down slope. ('05)

 
POINTLESS MY ASS.....maybe some of you are just too old.This forum sports many cranky riders.
OK, I guess I am just an out of touch, boring old fart.

BTW, since the thread I linked to above, I have hit a GPS top speed of 160mph on my FJR. How fast have you gotten yours up to?

 
Notice how TexasFJR never answered the question of his personal top speed. It would have been a lie anyways. If you have to ask then what does that mean? Too chicken shit to try?

I love a good dog pile on a Friday. Really the last day of the week to do it.
