which year is the most stable at maximum speed?

[TomJK]

i know there are a lot of factors, condition being one, but a properly maintained and dialed in bike, does it feel you need to white knuckle death grab the bike, or is it a breeze? can it do max speed while leaning over? does it shake a rattle? i never went that fast before 115 on a xs1100 bagger once, that machine was a beast as well loved it and miss it

i took my bike to 90 yesterday and ridding the .85 racetech spring and going back to stock, albeit with more 15wt, i felt comfortable i could do more

As long as everything is in good condition - tires, bearings, suspension, steering head, etc - these bikes have pretty conservative geometry and are stable as freight trains

Yes 18/38 , got it now on 18/37 has done over 70000 km now going strong!
