I hit 150 mph this morning on the 15 north before the 91 freeway on my way to work.[sm=gears.gif]


That's the fastest I've gone on this bike.


It felt like it will go faster. What's top speed on these bikes anyway??

 

That depends.......

with you on it, or with you bouncing down the freeway on your head?

I really hope there wasn't any other traffic around you.

150~160mph is tops with stock gearing. It depends on how much of you is sticking out in the wind.

BTW, your speedometer can be up to 15% high from the factory.

 

keep in mind that LEO's occasionally tread bike forums...
and doing so on a public highway during morning commute means that you put everyone else's life in danger.

 

ive hit 173 on mine... the gearing is stock, and only minor performance mods

but like black dog said... im sure my speedo is a lil off

(altho my friend was behind me in his camaro, we were both doin 120ish... he said i turned around and looked at him and left him in the dust)

 

"LEO"?
Not that I'm concerned about it, I have yet to break the speed limit.

 

Has any one had a tank slaper on a F4I ? 150 wow ! Im CHICKEN

 

been there done that once. not worth it on public roads imo. save it for the track, you'll be kisin your *** goodbye sooner or later if you keep it up. just think if you hit anything in the road at that speed. the highway isn't a prepped race surface.

 

ya ive had a few tank slappers they suck!!! but as to 150 ya hopefully u were on a secluded road if ur gonna do that stuff although i really dont care if u do, i mean i hit 150-160 ocassionally but the road i do it on had maybe 3 cars a day come down it its really secluded and straight. well be careful one trip over a 100 could be ur last although it is fun. ya and if u do hitr a bump at that speed ur gonna get the **** scared out of ya if u stay up. ive got that death wobble(dont know what its really called) at about 130-140 man i thought i was goin down but i stayed up but i about **** myself after that 1.

 

are steering dampers any hassle? i feel like id like to have that extra margin of safety but i dunno how they are at low speed stuff since i commute on my bike

 

no dampers aren't hassle, they are a good insurance...you should get one!!!

15 and 91 freeways is very busy stretch mang...i hate going out that way...hot, smelly, traffic...bad driving, speeding motorcycles...hahahahah...
