More than my XR did stock and that bike will go under 12 on the strip with a new air filter and drilled stock exhaust. One gentleman on the XR forum had a post of 11.88. If this is getting 11.7 while bumping into the limiter, I'm willing to bet it'll do the same kind of speed as the 1983 model, which is plenty fast.

I think it would be really close. I think it was Cycle World that published the 0-100 mph times for both models and they were just a few tenths apart.
