Planning to race it?

If not... top speed is well over what will get you sent right to jail in any state.

Anyways, going to a 14t or up a couple teeth in the back only looses you 5-10 mph of the tip top on average - but you get there faster.

Top speed will always be in 6th... other wise what's the point of it?
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

My 1100/1100S Owner's Manual states that the speedometer max display is 186.  Anything above that speed will show ---.

On the Autobahn?  Cool! ;D

no don't have an 1100 (yet, but seriously considering it)
BUT seeing that i hit 213kph with a 696 and 14t sprocket... the 1100 top end may be beyond what i may be willing to do.

my brothers 99 gsxr 750 did 170 mph in 5th gear could not maintain it in 6th. so i figure if the same were true of the monster it might just switch its top speed from 5th to 6th.

hp is not an indication of speed with the mosnters.... the S4Rs is only marginally faster than the S2R1000, but it boasts  almost twice the HP numbers

lack of torque on the top end with the 4cyl i suspect on that one?

Has to be more than that. I've had the S2R1000 to 141 and hand more to go, just no more room...
