RT Top Speed

Going to Germany in 4 weeks, I'll tell you when I get back. I'm guessing 120 - 125mph with panniers, topbox & Cee Baileys +3" screen.
 
Mr Garmin say's

I tried in the intrest of Science to see this ................ on a race track.

My garmin read 132mph :thumb2

how much did the gas flowed heads cost?
 
Anyone know what the top speed of the 2010 R1200Rt is?

On a German autobahn me lud, 2008 riding back from Istanbul on a fully loaded 2008 model the clock was showing a tad over 140 mph, Sat Nav said 137.

I can tell you that my 06 RT with full luggage does 131mph in 5th on the autobahn cos that's what the garmin showed when the rev limiter cut in :eek:

I was riding into the sun and couldn't see the gear indicator and thought I was in 6th.
 
So, the more aerodynamic fairing and panniers work at higher speeds then :thumb2

My GS was struggling to hit 120 two-up with topbox and extended panniers on the Autobahn last year (unlike my K1200S which topped 150 without trying) and acceleration was poor above 85. Might have to test ride an RT when it comes to replacement time :)

I'd want more if I'd paid a bundle for gas flowed heads!:tears
