The website says the bike accelerates to 140kmh in under 20 seconds. Sounds like a reasonable speed to me. Looking at his Speedo as part of a stunt? Lolol what a journalist!

Yup saw this the other day, reminds me of when I hit a deer on my cm450. Amazingly I hit him mid jump, The deer bounced off the front and I kept going I was in total shock mostly that I wasnt on the pavement prob because I was in my neighborhood and only doing about 25mph. I was not even a 1/4 mile from my house coming home at 6am from work so I was dead tired. i slowed down a bit as I watched a fox cross the road then all of a sudden out of my left peripheral DEER HEAD! bam! Good thing I used it before I left work lol I wouldve needed some new pants
