...test run this weekend showed an indicated 115/GPS 111, 10mph tailwind, may have had a few more clicks left in her.
Never did reach redline, more like maybe 6500rpm in 5th.

Are you sitting up or crouching behind the screen. I don't recall the numbers, but an early test I read a while back gave the top speed with the rider seated normally as being achieved in 4th gear, and a bit slower than what was achieved in top with the rider crouched behind the screen.
