just remember that speedo are only accurate ( vaguely) up to the legal limit, after that the speedo error is affected byu a few different elements such a tire slippage and its general calibration..so if you see 170 MPH and it is 10% off = 152 ACTUAL

 

I had my 02' F4i up to 153 before, and I feel it could have gone a little more!

 

02 f4i speedo read 164 @ redline.

BTW...there are different types of digital meters. Just because you have 3 digits speedo doesnt mean that all 3 digits go to 9. [sm=boosign.gif]The first digit may only go to 1 or 2. The reason I know this is that I am going to school for electronics and we had to deal alot with digital components and displays. [sm=icon_ladiesman.gif] I could go into all the gorey details but you would get bored and wouldnt read it anyway.

 

When you start up an F4i or at least the 2001, the speedo flashes 180, then rapidly drops to 0. I would think that 180 is as high as it would go.

 

I weigh 170 lbs, and my 02 f4i maxed out at 167, but it had more on the tach to go. It was a flat road, and I only have a two bros high mount slilp on. I go to a local bike night all the time, and there are at least 10+ f4i's there on any given tuesday night. Never heard of one going over 180. But also, I don't know anyone crazy enough to turbo or nos their f4i, they usually save those for busas and big 12s. We take our f4is through the twisties, and I've never seen any need for too high of a max speed.

 

Heh, my bike has problems, but I did a sad 105. at that speed, my brother passed me in his 94 Probe GT, then drove a way at about 150+... course, its not stock...bla bla bla...

 

ive gotten mine to 152 before i got scared, must have been 12k+ rpm's, i am a big guy though at 210 lbs so im not sure how much it had left, 152 was plentyyyyyyyy though

 

Ya it does i've had mine to 999 but i only have 3 teeth on the rear sprocket so...

 

I gps my bike to 168mph .

 

02 f4i 150 is as fast as I have gone
