damn - you're right - dunno why I had 45 in my head - I think it's cause that website lists 16/45 as stock for the F2, so I left it that way.

fixing the image I posted now.

I said that the speedos are known to be very inaccurate. On top of that, no 2 bikes are the same, and no 2 riders are the same. How much do you weigh? I am 140 lbs, hell I was probably 130lbs when I was dumb enough to hit that speed on public roads years ago.

One of these days, maybe I will get a video to shut you up.
The weight difference would affect the ability to reach top speed, however it would not affect the speed acheived. Unless there is wheel spin, redline on two bikes with identical gearing and identical size tires will be the same speed. Getting there will be affected, and the bikes ability to push to redline will be affected (heavier masses being harder to get up to that speed), but not the actual speed achieved all things being equal.


Now, if your bike is indicated at 162mph with -1+2, your speedo has gone beyond inaccurate to not even being a ballpark estimate. You should consider fixing it

Yeah I get it, but you can't even get to redline in 6th with stock gearing, therefor the redline "top speed" of a stock geared F2 is inaccurate against wind resistance because it will never get to that speed without some other mod or a strong wind up your *** lol.

So back to my point. A re geared f2 is just as fast (top speed, but even faster acceleration) because where the stock f2 is theoretically faster, you can't even get the torque in order to redline to get you TO the "on paper" top speed.
