Max Speed Cruise control on 87 Asp no LTD

Post by WingTob »



I want to buy a import Aspen with carburetor in Germany. We have no speed limits and i want to drive about 90mph or more. Do anyone know hom much speed i can set in cruise control with the aspencade?

Sometime i drive also 100mph but i dont how how much speed can the 12er hnadle. My 82 11 interstate can only handle 90mph easy :)

The Cruise control is limited to 128 km/h and I didn‘t find a way to increase it. The max speed depends on the road condition, tires, pressure, fork and damper oil condition and the load, but 180 km/h on the Autobahn is no problem.

My throttle lock was only $20, maybe not the best way to hold your speed but when you put in a 600 mile day your right wrist appreciates the help.
I'm selling good clean fresh hay. If you want some that's already passed through the horse, that comes a little cheaper!

The best advice on internet motorcycle repair forums comes from posting the wrong answer to your own question.
