RE: TOP SPEED STATS
Well, in ALL fairness, your speedo is wrong too! All of these new speedos get off little by little as you increase your speed! I won't lie, I weigh 215 and I've had my 05 600rr in 6th gear at only 9000 rpms to what MY SPEEDO said to be 164. Now, number one, weight is a HUGE factor that MOST don't take into consideration! Also, I had another what, 7,000 rpm's to go!!! which are in the POWERBAND! Now, like I said, it's these digital speedos that suck! In all actuality, your reports from sportrider, are TRUE speed calculated. In other words they either use GPS systems to calculate it, OR Radar/Laser! Because of the fact they are WAY closer. Just call it 160 for the "AVERAGE" rider!
Now while we're talking about STATS.....Folks, I LOVE my 600rr, it's a SWEET *** bike. I will NEVER get rid of it, til it blows anyways!!! However, has anyone read up on the new r1? Give you boys an idea of what is happening for the upcoming year...because we all know how close these damn things are from make to make!!! The new R1, maxed out 1ST GEAR at 100mph!!!!! And, they have proven it's HUMANLY IMPOSSIBLE to be 80% + in the throttle, and over 7500rpms and KEEP THE FRONT TIRE DOWN!!! Man, if honda's game isn't up to par with that, I may end up with a 600rr for a daily rider and an R1 for my weekend toy!!!!!!

RE: TOP SPEED STATS
it's what my speedometer read...and i felt i had room to go faster. i was tucked as tight as i could be against the tank and had my feet on the passenger pegs. i was speeding at 167-169 for about 10 seconds.
the bike is amazingly stable...

don't bash me...bash the speedometer

Holy **** man. Just reading these posts is making me nervous. I am still on the break in period on my 6RR and I was going 80 on the freeway and that seemed nuts, I cant imagine going 150+. I still get scared on a turn going 50 thinking the bike will slip out from under me. Maybe I am just a puss but this being my first street bike I never had to worry abou tthese things on my quad

RE: TOP SPEED STATS
Don't concern yourself with being a puss!!!!!!!!!! Concern yourself with being safe!! I would rather be called a puss 500 times a day and go home with a gorgeous, shiny bike then ride above my head and spend the rest of the afternoon collecting the pieces of my baby out of the ditch.....Just food for thought!!!!!!!
