Top Speed at 1st 2nd 3th gear

I know I've done it. Unfortunately, when riding like that my eye is on the tach rather than the speedo.
 
CB1100 1st 60 2nd 80 3rd 100

1000RR 2nd gear 115 3rd 135 Can't look at 1st to busy keeping the front wheel on the ground

XX Blackbird 2nd 105 3rd 130 Again can't look in 1st

Yes, just about 80 mph in 2nd. It can be run pretty hard between 60-80 mph in 2nd gear and really likes it. Puts you between 6,000-8,000 RPM. Make sure you have plenty of road ahead! Engine is nice and smooth.
thank you Stretch and CIP57 et al for the info. it's nice to know. this grandma will try it sometime on empty road.
