Rauri,
The first sentence begins with "Venture", I must have been distracted when I wrote "W".
W # 1 has done an indicated 115 MPH, no weave.
W # 2 has done an indicated 105 MPH, and has presented a pretty respectable weave at speeds over 90 MPH.

How the heck did you get to 120 MPH on the Ws, James?

My Venture has a warnning attached to the trunk lid, it says do not
exceed
85 MPH with luggage attached. The Ws I have owned wander at 120 MPH or
so
(but didn't with Marcia sitting behind me, so I think it is
aerodynamics).
The top box didn't affect the CB 400 F up to where it leveled off at 100
MPH, and I rode the Nighthawk 650 up to 100 MPH without a problem with a
box
on the back, which doesn't mean that there would not have been a problem,
had I gone faster.
