My 03 600RR holds three standing mile national top speed records set at Maxton, NC. I bought it as a wreck (hit in the back). It runs in the open class NO FAIRING. Dead stock (even the exhaust) but lowered, it ran 155mph. With one tooth larger rear sprocket (lower gearing) it went 157. I use it as a training bike for my two man team of really high speed racers. The 600 lets you know if you are tucked properly as it is easy to lose a mph or two if you are not. Go to www.precisionchassis.com and look under motorcycles to see my 251 MPH Suzuki powered custom chassis. Also look under special projects to see me on my twin-engine GSXR. Bonneville has been wet the last two years. Hopefully 2006 will be good and 270MPH will be possible. I have been racing top speed at Bonneville for 25 years (In the 200 Club but now retired due to poor eyesight). My riders have some impressive speeds including 220 on motor and 205 on motor open. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. LSL

 

well i believe it. im 21 and 130lbs. i can tuck completely behind the windscreen too. and ive gotten 168. now if it was actually 168 who knows. i just go by what the spedo says.

 

is that a challenge i smell

 

I double dog dare you....

 

i second this motion!

 

I saw 168 yesterday when i glanced down in tuck position with a backpack on. I hit that on I5, nice smoothe pavement. My 4th gear hits 143-145 every time. I try not to look down much when I am hauling ***. Also i hit 145-155 constantly from woodland to davis, bike didn't even hesitate. But, I am kinda wondering if thats a big reason why my bike is totally ****in dead right now.

 

I got an '01 f4i. i've gotten mine up to 162.

 

Damn, 162 on F4i. I thought the f4i was a lot slower than the RR, but I guess not. you have any mods on the f4i. I almost would be an f4i owner. They are the most comfortable 600 sportbike ever. I want to find one that lost some plastics to use as a stunter.

 

Only mods I have on my bike is a micron slip on and I cut the air intake box. Also, I was looking at the comparison of the '01 f4i and the '03 600rr. The f4i has a faster quarter mile than the rr.

 

so today i really opened her up. on the gas hard down a long straight smooth highway. 146......147.....148mph, and the big bright orange light comes on, red lined. oh ****, im only in 5th gear........hmmmm
