Suzuki Savage.

One of the guys at my school had an old Savage that he rode a lot, I never got to ask him about it but it was a nice looking bike.
As for the Vulcan 500's top speed, I can't say. I can say that I've had mine to 104mph and it was still climbing but that was way to fast for me and a lot faster than I thought she'd actually go. I did put a "highway" sprocket on mine so that may have added a few mph to the top achievable speed compared to the factory ratio. The Vulcan also has a lot of pep off the line. I don't normally drive with the "jack rabbit" starts, but I've done it a few times just to see how she'd do and it's pretty fast.
