Getting A Better Top Speed? (CBR 125R)
Hey hey all!
I know it's hard, but what can be done to improve the top speed of my CBR125R? My current record if 75 MPH. I have done some basic things like clean the air filter, oil chain, clean mud. Is there anything else I could do to a get a few more MPH? Thanks!

I had seen a couple of videos on YouTube explaining how to switch to smaller sprockets and why it gives a boost in speed, was very tempted to make the changes for a while, but decided I'd rather have the current setup 50/50(ish) to Speed/Acceleration and try to find other ways of improving it without the loss of acceleration. Things like losing weight, clean filters, oil chains etc.

Yes^^^^^If you had the resources you could experiment with body position. I remember reading an article in one of the popular magazines here in the U.S. & rather than just sitting in the seat & squeezing as tight into the bike as possible trying to eliminate wind drag, one of the guys figured out if he put his hind end up on the passenger seat and hunched his back just a little he could get 3mph more than any one else or himself in a different position.
