just over 130 in the mig, a couple of weeks ago.It felt  very planted and not at all mechanically stressed.would have gone a fair bit faster if I hadnt run out of road. 155 ish on the cbr600, and 160 + on an R1 a few years ago.
Until recently my workplace was on an old airfield with a 2 mile perimeter road.  ;)

At 2.5 miles per minute that was some length of private road Mark! :-? :-? :-? ;D ;D ;D ;)

It has taken me miles of motorways to reach then maintain that speed to make it worthwhile. 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) :y
