Took mine to 160 and it was as fast as I ever need to go. Was scary, Had to constantly watch road for anything even a squirrel would cream you at 160.

151 prior to my speedohealer and 520 conversion.

162 after.

I conducted my own lil experiment the other nite (matter-a-fact), as I wanted to sea my new top end after gearing my bike down (-1+2). Before my experiment, I guessed, based on rpm and engine noise in sixth (6th) at about 140-145.

Here it is, the straight away (I-95 southbound) with lil to no cars on the RD (3:45 a.m.) I hit the gears alllll the way up flawlessly, nearlly hitting the rev limiter in every gear. It felt so good, I havent hit the gears that smooth gittin on it since my F4 in 02'

162 on the gage, with a99.9 accuracy, and the rev light comming on I ease of the throttle. The bike felt like it had a smidgen more, if I had to guess 165-168 tops. I'm all about the low end anywho, why I did the 520 in the first place, but ya gotta treat yerself to a lil speed from time to time.

this bike is insane, luvin the 520
