100 mph or greater in FL is reckless driving. Go directly to jail, bail, see a judge. No thanks. Worked all that out of my system over 20 years ago.
I can tell you this. For some real excitement, take a street bike,(not a cafe racer type), at least a 650cc, down a gravel road, fast as you dare. Over 80 mph, things begin to change. The gravel becomes a fluid, the bike a jet ski. Faster than 85mph, you can turn the handlebars all the way, either way, the bike will continue forward in a straight line. You can ride back and forth over that center hump of gravel like it's wave in the water. Just lean a little, the bike will respond. Don't use the front brake though, it will all end in tragedy.
