Unless you've up the rev limiter a ton or swapped gears some how there's no way. These bikes pull 2700rpm at 60mph. The rev limiter kicks in at 5700rpm. The fastest you could possibly go with stock limiter and gears is 130ish

@Grassroots_Hegemon

Morte Parla there’s a bunch of reasons for this but one of the big ones is that the faster you go the harder nature tries to slow you down. For example the new Veyron SS got 250 horsepower bump to go 3 miles an hour faster, because at 250 that’s what it takes to get to 253. Other thing is this is a significantly heavier bike and their gearing is different, smaller bikes like the shadow often have a couple longer gears later to make them less annoying to listen to on the highway
