hi, what is the actual top speed of 2009 x-plane R1 with a flashed ECU by Jett Tuning? my friend's MV Agusta F4 has an indicated 318kmh top speed lol, can my 09 R1 go faster than that? :crash

next answer going to be 500mph top speed in first gear huh... :2bitchsla

2nd gear goes 750mph:bash

seriously, I really wanted to hang out with them, one F4 and another one ZX10R heavily mod, they always play 300kmh on the highway and I was left to eat dust:cryin

I have shipped my ECU to Jett Tuning, still waiting...

I have several MV F4s of various years and slightly different hp outputs; and I think it's more of a slightly-slower-acceleration-and-then-can't-run-'em-down-up-top thing for the R1s. My 1078RR is my fastest MV on GPS at 192mph. Full Ti exhaust and Microtec ECU gives 191hp at the tire (+22 from the 169hp stock baseline). Weight is about the same as the new R1s, at 479# stock.

The 1078RRs did 187mph stock. All my R1s are close, between 174 and 186mph on GPS; but not in acceleration TO top speed. And a few mph just can't be made up on the big end, so the gap just widens at warp speeds. The ZX-10Rs are crazy fast. I have several of those, too; and I understand your plight. Mod-for-mod, you're still gonna be a bit short on the Kawis.

Pipes, filter, and reflash/tune should make you happy and get you close. I'd recommend a nice set of forged wheels as much as anything. The '07-later MVs have Brembo (Marchesini) Superlights that are only 1.0/1.5 heavier than BST carbons F/R.

Ok KNN air filter it new a few months ago, cat delete, two brother slip on, new ecu flash com flash tune, power commander 5 with custom map, and just got it dyno again still only 137 hp. I'm very disappointed, what can I do to see why that is? The dyno guy said the weather thats what cause of the hp lost.
