I am not inclined to mandate it for others, but don't think it's a bad idea to be on all street motorcycles. A mfg's agreement of 186 mph for motorcycles intended for the street is crazy in a country where 80 is the maximum legal limit. For race track intended motorcycles, with no lights, turn signals, mirrors, and a special " intended for racing only" title it could have 500 horsepower and go 500 miles per hour for all I care. Race tracks are where limits should be tested, not on public roads.

I am not asking for it, but personally I'd have no problem with a 100 horsepower limit and 125 mph limiter on motorcycles intended for street use.

Mike yes our bikes our electronically speed limited to 112 mph. Do yourself a favor, if the police are behind you with lights flashing, pull over. A speeding ticket beats a speeding ticket plus wreckless op, plus eluding, getting to sit in the back of the car with cuffs on and go to jail ticket...thats if you dont crash and burn trying to get away and get really f'd up. IMO

Ron, you can still hit 100 in the blink of an eye on the CB 1100, just so you know.

If you watch NCIS Los Angeles or person of interest, or the old Sandra Bullock movie the Net even, what teh government knows about every one of us scares the crap out of me. Limiting me to going ONLY 112 mph, is one of the lesser intrusions in my life.

I have come to accept the fact that we can't get away from Big Brother, we can't fight Big Brother, and it's only going to get worse. Luckily ( or unluckily depending on how you look at it ) I dont have too many more years on this planet, so it's only going to be a minor annoyance for me, but I really worry for my children and even more my grand children. I'm afraid in this land of the free, they will have very few true freedoms left.

I'm guessing someday vehicles will be governed to the speed limit by GPS, at which time your CB whatever will probably be limited to 70 mph in 70 zones and 10 or 15 in parking lots.
