The difference between normal riding position, and full tuck on my Ninja 250 was 5 MPH at top speed.

It would do 110, and 115 if I was fully tucked in. At normal speeds, I dare say the difference would be negligible.

I saw two yesterday (separate incidents) in full tuck around 60mph (winds were maybe 10 mph when stationary) and almost had to pull over I was laughing so hard. The KLR going the same direction as I was just shook his head.
