Top speed

41 posts in this topic

I've seen 250 km/h for some seconds...(and it had more power!!)

The truth is that over 200-220 km/h ,you feel uncomfortable(at least me without a screen)

Here is a screenshot of my GPS records. The 3rd line is the top speed, attained in Germany to visit the Intermot show.

Max height (last line) was reached while skiing in Val Thoren btw... hehehe !

That equals 180.19764568 miles per hour, which would be a jail sentence in the UK. :drool:

150 with my screen and a bit left I think .. 160 is a the "book" speed. So that bares up I believe.

I've done 275 kmh (170mph) while racing with a Kawa ZX7R and a BMW M5 E39. They both left me in the dust, the Kawa doing 285 and the beemer must have gone at at least 300 kmh. Gotta love the swedish highways!

I've had a ZX-7R, and it won't get close to 170mph, no way, not with a pipe and kit ..

ZX-9R yes, easy, but not a 7.

It was a 7. I don't know the details on his bike, but clearly it had a lot of things done with it. The bike was a former roadracing bike as well.

Maybe he didn't see the speedo all clear, but I know i reached 275 at top speed, and the Kawa slipped slowly pass me.

(Of course, it might be that my speedo is a bit too optimistic)
