90 is the low limit for the eco mode. Did you try to set it with the bluetooth app ?

Are your tyre pressures correct?  The bike should get to top speed without struggling. Does it take a long time to reach 145?

No. Did you change anything (smallest gear, different tires,...) ?

To be honest, if high top speed is your thing, you should have bought a Hayabusa or something.  Go and find some corners!

I think just wants to make sure bike can go as fast as it's specs say.
No harm in wanting to see how your new toy performs.

The speedometer on the bikes are usuallly not accurately calibrated; I would check against GPS to verify top speed.

Normally the speedometers are calibrated to read high, which would be concerning if your top speed was still 90 mph. Check it out though and report back..

mine goes 95 and sometimes 96 but then goes to 95,  Can't keep it there too long because you get red over temp and it will throttle you down to 85.
