My speedo indicated betwee 145-150. Didn't want to spend too long looking at it to make sure what it was really reading. This was a year and a half ago, and it was caused by my buddy on his fairly new GSXR 600 blasting past me, while I got caught in some light traffic. It was about 0100, and we were on our way home from work. I dropped 2 gears when the traffic was clear and shot past him. He was fairly surprised. That is the only time I've been that fast. I'm either going to drop a tooth to the front, or add two to the rear. I don't ever spend any time above 120 now. It's to risky, and the roads aren't built for it here. In Vegas, there were a few good roads for high speed runs.

Fastest I got my black '94 to was 240km/h indicated. Also 240km/h indicated for my red '00.

Yea,I've seen that video before,it never get's old watch'n someone do dumb ass things.I bet she was wishing she was wearing the right gear and a different man after that stunt.

Jaymz · 01-19-2007, 06:13 AM

the fastest I've registered on my mad max is about 125mph I had more but not sure how much. with the mods that I have she gets up there pretty quik. I want a bigger bike but I don't want to get rid of my interceptor, I love this bike.

148mph here too, it's all she had in her.

It reached about 55 deg F today so took off down to the beach road. Rode about 50 miles by the beach, stopped for awhile and took stroll by the water. Returned back home. Was sunny and temp just right comfortable with insulated cortex pants and riding jacket. It is always riding season here in North west Fl. Just realized I am not in appropriate thread for my post. So the fastest I've seen is 105 on speedo. About as fast as I want to go. BBuck

Gang, sorry to bust anyones bubble, but speedometers gt pretty optomistic after 135mph. if you break 150 on a VFR, you're doing pretty good. If you really break 170, get w/me and I'll sponser you for a land speed record run in 750 class.

+1... mine is 4mph off to begin with.

RVFR · 02-06-2007, 06:54 PM

Found out the speed-o isn't to far off during the dyno runs there's a second speed-o thats runs off the actual machine, I'm sure its calibrated right into the whole dyno as these runs are done in 6th What I saw twice was 132 and 134 at aprox. 10,000rpm which if you're able to pull redline gets my 4th G to about 148-150 so my 152mph I thought I saw wasn't so far off.
