RE: TOP SPEED STATS
168 is the most i can get outta my stock '03 600RR...It ain't redlining though, just not enough *** to push through the wind at that point. Could prolly get a little more with a few tweaks. But, as we've repeated over and over here lol, the speedo's prolly off. So i guess that put me somewhere between 155 and 162. Still plenty fast enough to kill me. I've hit the pavement twice doing 65mph (stunting) and i wouldn't wanna hit any faster than that. I'll be the first to tell you that it is possible to get roadrash with a leather jacket on while not actually tearing the leather.

While installing my Speedohealer I compared 75PMPH on my speedometer to my GPS and my GPS said 70.5. That would mean 150MPH on the meter would really be 141 if the error ratio is the same.
By the way after the install which went really good and easy my speedo is now right on for all intensive purposes. The speedo healer is a good deal at around $100.

I would like to support this ....ive sat on the landspeed record bike hes speaking of....today as a matter of fact the 04 team falkner/livingston... whom i both know personally who built the bike. 184.610@ bonneville, you can see the bike and its twin brother the custom turbo charged 600RR at pole position raceways in corona where im a manager, at times the bike can also be seen at race tech. I have previously asked about stock in comparison with custom speeds done on this bike.... the 600rr stock doesn't pull outa the 160's. mind u at bonneville conditions are actually very bad for landspeed records due to thinner air. by the way, the motor on both the nitro and turbo'd 600's that set the record.....are almost completely stock. its all bolt on and proper setup that achieved these numbers. along with custom carbon fiber rims that were $2,000 a piece and a custom catalyst body for each. fun times i hope to pilot one of the bikes this year they bring up, they've told me its a possibility but ...no promises as of yet!

The speedo will be off by 5 mph or more at high speeds, 179 mph I seriously doubt being that the land speed record on a 600rr was recently set on an RR with nitrous (and other mods) at 184 mph (radar confirmed).
I've had a indicated 157 mph on my '03 RR and I side note...with stock gearing you cannot redline this bike in 6th gear!

please, i've taken corners at over 130 before with no problem. I've hit 165 before my power commander. i'm small enough to tuck down completely against the tank and behind the windcreen. at that speed, wind resistance is your biggest obastacle, aside from needing more power.
