66 mph with no mods, tucked. I weigh 138 lbs. 66 mph is well over redline which is at 62 on my bike, so that is as fast as I routinely go, but I go 62 mph also in a tuck a lot on the interstate basically until I come to a hill that shows me down. Without a tuck, my highest speed is 58 mph....level road. Wind and slope changes everything.

155lbs, 6', few mods, 65/68 upright, peg out around 8,700 rpms, just not enough umph to push past.

I'm sure if I tuck/draft then I'd go faster, but I'm form over function as long as I can still push 60 mph uphill.

Add: Optimal conditions, no wind, 60's, no hills, small bends. I don't hit 65/68 on the highway with regular traffic without drafting some.

Add: And 14T so my speedo is obviously off.

My redline begins at 8200 or so which is 62 mph for me. That's nearly wot and that's my benchmark. If I edge up over that speed, I slow down a bit. I do have one mod on my Grom. I put in the high speed spark plug since I do a lot of interstate riding. I don't think that affects speed though. The fastest I've had my bike is 66 mph and I think that puts me at 8500 rpms. Usually this happens on the interstate with a little downslope or tail wind. Really, I could just ride WOT all the time and not redline and control my top speed by how much I tuck. I-35 around here is nearly level.

when my bike was stock I went 63 tucked, I've seen 65 tucked on the highway after doing a foam air filter and the rest of the air filter mod. this weekend I should have a higher number I will have exhaust and a 14 tooth front sprocket. need to download a gps app so I can see my actual mph
