For starters, go back to normal font...bold italic capitals makes you look like an attention *****. Get noticed through what you say, not the font you say it in.
Secondly, there's no magic cable you can cut to increase your top speed by 40 MPH. And if there was, it wouldn't be called a "rev limiter," it would be called a governer. A rev limiter prevents RPMs, not speed.
My advice is to cut every cable on the bike. This is the only thing that's going to save you from riding it and killing yourself.
If you must top out, there are other ways of hitting 185. For starters, remove the brake levers, cables, calipers, and pads. This is significant weight that is holding you from achieving maximum speed. Also, oil weighs quite a bit too, so drain it. The addition of a racing stripe would also help you out significantly. Good luck!
