Re: Mahindra Mojo Owners Reviews and Experiences
Even I'm no expert about motorcycles, simply used the information provided by the manufacturer and cross-checked on Gearing Commander. 
I share the same feelings about highway speeds, practically doesn't make sense, plus my home state is Kerala, where the average speed from one end to the other would be an average of 30kmph.
I've ridden my CT100B on the Golden Quadrilateral circuit and covered close to 8k km's before returning home, and even with the puny motorcycle I was able to do anywhere from 700~900km's daily on good days, which coincidentally is more or less the same average distances I cover while riding interstate on my P220 on which I do speeds of 100~130kmph on the speedo. Hence my understanding from my experience is that you don't really need to go at insane speeds to haul ass on the highways.
Plus you're spot on about Indian conditions, it's truly crazy, from SUV's obliterating cow's at insanely high speeds to idiots driving tractors in the wrong side in pitch darkness and what not is what I have experienced through out my ride. From what I've seen and experienced so far, a person should have to be practically stupid to try International speed's on our highways.
Edit:
Just a FYI of cruising speeds of the RE line up computed on gearing commander at peak torque RPM:
UCE350: 94.1 kmph
UCE500: 107.8 kmph
UCE535: 112.1 kmph
Himalayan: 90.8 kmph
Interceptor: 96.5 kmph
Unfortunately the Mojo's info wasn't in the database hence couldn't get info for the same with respect to cruising speed.

A.P.
