Fastest you've had the SV recently? (sorry if this has been done already!)
I recently had the sv at an indicated 140 mph (on a private road in a controlled environment bleh bleh before anyone shouts at me ). For whatever reason, it made me wonder what everone else had had out of their SV.

140 from my K5 but I think it might creep higher if I had more road, 138 out of my K3 naked (I had to crawl under the paint on the tank to get there)

Haven't seen one of these "mines faster than your" threads in a couple of months, it was overdue.
So who's going to add the 145 mph then.

138 indicated on a K3 with a VERY long run up on a private run way in clear and dry conditions, the nice people with the far more accurate speed measuring things that pulled me over for a chat clocked it at 120.

lol, I meant to include a bit of a disclaimer/appology in the initial post for any that had been before or anyone who thought it was a stupid subject to discuss. I signed upto the site under a year ago and have only been properly active since november so I havent seen any "im fast as fook" threads on here before
