85 mph (137 kph) fully stock, and was on the road. Ran out of road into a turn, but i suspect it wouldn't go much faster. I am 6' and 150#.
As a side note, I've noticed my speed as related to my RPM has decreased recently, any else experience this?

145kmh. Two Brothers pipe, Twin Air filter, airbox lid remove, backfire screen removed, Iridium plug, AUS spec CDI (better than USA. Sorry guys,) crankcase breather restriction removed, N1RX needle raised 1.5 mm (AUS spec,) #138 Kehein main jet, #38 Kehein pilot jet, Kouba FS3 fuel screw 1.75 turns out. Stock 14/42 gearing. Flat tar road, 15 knot cross wind. 
Could feel the limitations of the smaller header, definitely. But I'm happy with the torque and low/midrange it produces.

Scarry fast...
Probably something over 200.. 14/51 gearing.. completly stock
Oh it's not a KLX tho.. haha
Should probably say it's a 525
Ha, couldn't help myself.
But on the 07' KLX
I think I did once get 145kms indicated, 14/48, K&N filter, Big Gun exhaust, KDX snorkle, Jetted accordingly
No wind, flat pavement

if u havent changed anything i'd say tire wear. For each turn of the rear there is now less distance travelled. Just picture riding on your rims centre only. Wouldnt go very fast would ya!
