How fast have you travelled ?
C'mon Guys, confession time......How far on the clock (or off it) have you pushed your beloved machine ? I managed 265 KPH into a headwind (light) at sea level on a cool day two weeks ago, and there was still a little left....but the corners come up AWFUL FAST !!!

270 km/hindicated with a standard gearing. Real world speed I guess arround 255 km/h.
Had it going for about 2 km on the freeway before I had to back down. The Cane had a little left in the engine at the time, but not very much
Surppose thats fast enough for me...

There's a road in S. Florida called US-29. A section between US-41 and I-75 is pretty secluded and straight with few cross streets. It was newly paved with I'd say 3 or 4 months. Riding with some guys I had it up to somewhere between 160 and 165 mph. I didn't look down to see at the exact moment. She was still pulling, however slowly gaining when my "Brass" ran out . I looked at my gps laterand it had maxed out at 145 mph, so I'm fairly confident that's how fast I was going.

280 km/h on the CBR 1000 F -92
299 km/h on the GSX R 1000 -03
320 Km/h on the CBR 1100 XX -97
All figures above are speedo readings, i.e. the actual speed was lower. All bikes were changed from 17T to 16T front sprocket, giving about 6% higher (false) reading than stock readings, which also are a bit high.
Anyway, the end result is that all bikes has beenpushed to theirtrue top speeds that are almost; 260 km/h for the Cane and about 285 km/h for the two later bikes.
