What have you seen on the speedo?

What have you verified via GPS?

How does your bike handle at it's max speed?

I have seen 181 corrected. supposedly with yellowbox.

no but at slower speeds was clocked at 80 correctly. :crash :riding

as far as handling at high speeds it seems like my bike is like me just wants to keep going and hug the road all day long :bandit

287 km/h on my R6 (260 real world IMO).

301 km/h (186 mph) on my GSXR 1000 on the limiter..... ta...ta ta...ta.ta ta ta........ta ta ta...ta........ta ta......

Nothing special, i don't give a shit about top speed. My suzuki was so stable i could have eat a Big Mac on the tank at 186 mph, no problem.

173 indicated on my 600. she was still pulling but I ran outta road.
I'm geared 1 up in the back. gonna try it again now that my exhaust and air filter are on there with my remapped ECU. we'll see how she does.:jump
