Did 1000 miles round trip to the Ga rally in the M109 from central florida. Not quite as far as recovery4x4 but close. Ran 55 to 60 mph on the way up, nervous about winding it to tight. The gps said I topped out at 62.5 mph on level hiway at full throttle on the gov. On the way back home, pulled the hand throttle all the way out, feet flat on the floor and just rode. Letting up on it on just the downhill parts. If I didn't have a time frame to meet, would not have run it that hard. It's much happier at 45 to 50 mph.

Left Macon trying to catch these National Guard guys to show'em the old deuce still had it! Ran full throttle and passed them before they got off at tifton!
