On my 1996 Honda CBR600 F3 with 50,000 miles I ran it to 155mph in 5th gear with it pulling just fine but I let off because I didn't really want to go faster. It was dynoed at 77hp and is running very very rich.

New 600s will eat my bike alive.

So here is 77hp with a 230lb person on it and a bike that probably weighs 50lbs more than new bikes on top of much worse aerodynamics.

In the part with the blinker when I let off it's around 95mph.

I also had a 1994 Yamaha SecaII that I ran to 135mph and it was a joke of a bike.

Trust me. If you ever get bored with the power of the bike go hit some mountains up.
