RE: How fast have you gone on your cbr1000rr????
I've done a quick blast up to 143 indicated on the RR, which is like 133/134 true speed. I had my ZX-9 up to an honest 150 before I chickened out. During a ¼ mile test, a guy hit a squirrelat ~150, and surprisingly nothing happened.
I'd like to know what a stock 1000RR could do with the right gearing, I'd guess about180.

RE: How fast have you gone on your cbr1000rr????
When I first saw this thread I thought there would be a bunch of 170-180 mph's in here. On my first bike ('04 599) I got up to 154mph before the road caught up with me, and it felt like there was an ounce or two left. I bought my 1krr just recently and with the horrible weather we have had here in the Houston area I still haven't broken 600 miles yet. But once I get past the break in period I plan to find a long stretch of road that I familiarize myself with before hand, and when noone is around top the CBR out. Who knows though, I might chicken out once I bust 160 or so...
