haha, nice !
It should reach 140km/u with great eas, (I get there in one nice and fast acceleration with no problems at all) , then, when you reach 140 km/u, you can feel the bike is now pushing it.
I never went faster then 140km/u , just because it's an old bike and I would like to enjoy it 50 more years :D , but I have no doubt it can reach the given 160km/u or 'ton' like mr. Honda advertised it for, maybe even faster if you asked me.
But you simply don't drive an 50year old bike @ 100% power, you just don't.
Just make sure you can keep up with the cars on the freeway, and have some power left to accelerate if you wanna pass some cars. It should be possible.
It still amazed me how fast the bike accelerates, even when driving 120km/u, open up the throttle and your flying past the cars with no problem at all.
It's a wonderful little bike :)
