Yes! I had an indicated 140 @10500 rpm in 6th on my curvy at bruntingthorpe test track after a charity rideout. It wouldn't rev any more than that in 6th. We all know it was more like 120-125

Can't see the pics, says they have been deleted from photobucket. Nice work though, nice to have actual proof that the SV tops out about 125mph, we have had some ridiculous claims in the past.

I guess not, first thing I did before racing it for three years was take the speedo drive out. I raced it on revs, not speed.
