Tim, sorry to hear about the crash. We've all been right at the edge of a crash like yours. In my case, I totally separated my right shoulder in an off highway incident. Six weeks is pretty short for recovery, unless is wasn't fully separated like mine.

My '89 with some performance modifications will pull just under redline on a flat surface, no downhill cheating. This is 115mph with a GPS. I suspect this is just about the maximum 'actual' speed that most 1000cc machines in well-tuned condition will do, even the fabled "big-pipe" 1977 mod...
