I agree, the KLR'er flat out with a tail wind will do 92 mph but this does not feel fast it feels horrible with a death wobble possible at any moment. Taking curves at speed (40+55 mph) on back roads feels fast and is super fun. When I lived at the McDonald Observatory, we had a group that road once a week on a large variety of bikes. (KLR, Vulcan 1500, V-Max, HD) and we never had to stick together as we were mostly matched between the straightaways and the curves. The slower bikes could not keep up on the straightaways and we would generally catch up and pass on the Twisties.Maybe a definition of "fast" is in order?
To me, fast is when it feels fast to me.
