No motorcycle experience here....although I've had a polaris 4-wheeler atv at an indicated 60+ a time or two.
In a car, dad had a Lexus a couple years back with a 160mph speedo and I saw an indicated 135 or so in it a couple times.
Doesn't really compare though to my racing experiences driving a dirt latemodel stockcar at Bellville KS on the big halfmile track there. "Average" lap speeds were recorded in the 125-130mph area, meaning quite a bit higher on the faster stretches(not really a true "straightaway" at Bellville since the track kinda is a big bowl).

He got a poundin' after that one!
