2500/3500 depending on traffic and road conditions. Wind her up occasionally to 7000/8000 just to blow the tears out of my eyes.

Don't make this forum think your so reserved just because your the moderator, Molly Brown just called from MY ROAD and she said the Ferett was in her words (a flash in the pan) she could hardly see you as you flashed byeeeeee.

I beautiful day for a ride mid 70, took a few hours off work and went for a very enjoyable ride. While at the hotdog stand a young fellow in his 20's was admiring my bike and said his dad restores Honda's. He took a pic of the CB to show his dad and I asked him to take a pic of me with my camera.

Lol I have no idea what that means Steve..I googled Molly Brown and all I got was a survivor of the Titanic.

For what it's worth, I would never attempt to run that fast on my road, I was on a long straight stretch of the interstate, and felt uncomfortable doing it there ( Ohio is loaded with Highway Patrol, Sheriffs and local Leos..it's a gauntlet out there) However in Utah, that would just be running the speed limit. Crazy. Feels so wickedly fast and highly illegal here, and it's perfectly normal out there.

Your bike looks good and purposeful. I need to modify my Street Shield Ex like you have done and get it on before winter gets here.

LOL it was a joke, but there could be a Molly Brown on my road for all i know.
Let me know if you need info on the shield or would like me to cut it down, be more than happy to do it for you
