Re: What's the fastest you've ever been on a bike?
indicated 186 mph, with the speedo healer set at -9%, so its still way off as i think the offical top speed of the 750 is around 170 ish (if that) but not 100% sure. not on a uk road of course

Re: What's the fastest you've ever been on a bike?
They are no quicker than a Bandit 1200, only difference is the Bandit is easier to derestrict and push up to 120bhp for little cost.

Re: What's the fastest you've ever been on a bike?
They are geared for 176 or so.
6th gear is nicely overdriven cos of this. Maybe the "M6" is a paddock stand?

Re: What's the fastest you've ever been on a bike?
I liked jenson buttons answer on top gear when asked about his veyron... he said 70 + 10% so 77mph.
My CBR speedo has seen 172mph with not a lot more to go, it's supposed to have a top speed of 155mph so the speedo is way out, although I was going downhill at the time lol

Re: What's the fastest you've ever been on a bike?
Been using sat-nag on the bike for the 1st time this year.
GSX1400, 150mph= 134 actual. 90mph= 80mph. The last one has knocked up my m/way cruising speed whereas before I would be starting to get paranoid.

Re: What's the fastest you've ever been on a bike?
