My Harley goes probably 1-3mph depending on how hard I can push it. It also depends on how recently I've worked my legs out and how steep of a grade I'm pushing against.

sounds like a fuckin' stupid idea if you ask me. if you want to experience going fast in reverse, drive a fork truck. they're rear steering.

I bet the Cadillac, with the 2.14 ring, goes over 100mph in reverse, but I'm not going to try it.

Fuck yeah! I ride out at 55mph at like 500-600rpm. You have no idea what slow is until you drive a 4500lb car with a 2.14 ring.

Fastest I've gone in reverse is 10MPH and thats because some shit was going down and I needed to get out of there quick.

I've done 20 or so. Never felt a need to top it out, steering gets weird at that speed in reverse.
