I've been at 135 many times in a cage, but there was always a reason to get there that usually overrode the fear of crashing.

Today, I pulled out to pass Clem Kadiddlehopper in his pickup at about 60 mph. I just gave it a little gas, honest. Next time I looked down I was doing 80 and climbing. Probably time for the 3000 mile lower unit O-ring replacement (on me, not the bike.) Seems like it is getting less and less distressing to drive too fast. I don't really want to be wrung into a mop bucket and then poured into my coffin. Rather be shot by an irate 20 year old husband when I'm about 82. Grin
