It's not 95 mph

My 2016 F3T has shown 115 mph. Only did this twice and it's now out of my system. The front end felt oddly "lite" over 100mph. Now that you know I hope you won't be as stupid as I was. Curiosity can be a dangerous thing.

95 is definitely not the top speed. I have had my 2016 F3T above 110 and it felt like it had plenty left. I just ran it up there to catch up with a friend, and then dialed it back down. That was good enough for me.

I have run out of road before I've reached how far into triple digits my Spyder will go.

My real concern is not how fast they will go but how quickly they can stop to avoid an accident

at 105 mph for the f3s and 95 mph for the rt f3L/T the ecu starts limiting throttle input you can still hit 125 mph but its slow getting there the faster you go the throttle progressively closes until you hit 125 mph limiting top speed

Considering there are no roads where you can legally do 95 mph in this country this should not be much of a problem. You can get there pretty fast much like a jet pinning you to your seat till you reach crusing altitude then lets you go....Enjoy...

Thank you its good to see some one else nows what they are talking about on this matter. I have been saying this exact thing on other sites and have been chasified about this . Some have claimed to go 147 and still could of gone faster but ran out of road.

I've had my '16 F3L up to 110 and that was while pulling my 622 trailer. It was topped out. Cruzr Joe, pulling his trailer, passed me.

While doing the same on a straight, flat, solitary road in Utah, I discovered 110 isn’t the top. :shocked:

I have run 96.26 at drag strip and 120 with more to go on highway before traffic got in the way By the way that is 13.962 quarter mile

Fastest I have ever achieved while attached to the ground was 185 mph indicated on a ZX9 owned by my drag racing friend. He wanted to take his girl for a ride on my Valkyrie and I agreed, as long as he left his 9 for me. At that speed, your pants become painful whips against your ankles. Fastest on a bike I owned was 132 indicated on my 600.

I have nothing left to prove. I just know that I love my F3 and how it handles.
