i think its just stupid to brag about top speeds.. but whatever.


Ummm, we all like bikes that go fast and we all like to know how fast everyone else has gone, can't see anything wrong with that. Maybe it's just you.

What would it matter if it were a cop who was asking and you said "oh, I've done 400km/h on puplic roads". He couldn't do anything.

About 200 m.p.h. on my built gixxer 1000. Thinking about building a turbo busa to challenge ghost for the wheelie record... :twisted: That would be fun. Just need to sell everything I own :( It would be worth it though.

.....The Final Ride....Uppsala Run...while haulin' butt @ 299 km/h, during a sweeping right-hander !!!........GR takes one hand off the bars to give US a thumbs up, which is a little trickier than looking at a speedo ........MAYBE in some cases, skills and courage over-ride foolishness.................... :)
