232 is plenty fast !
The fairings on the cbr after 100mph do really help alot but you have to pick your day with zero cross- winds.
I only tested my bike once,and it was a great day with no cross-winds and no traffic on the road [very rear].They are
resurfacing the road so i might try it again with my termignoni exhaust on. I am sure i can do better than 232kmh.
I only just hit 140 going down hill🙈Theoretical 151mph,based on gearing.
It makes it all the more impressive to think the MotoGP guys reach 350+ km/h on a bit of track like Mugello's long straight.201 on a the CB. Got scared of having my bike taken away so didn’t push it past.
Plus at those speeds you really need a good windscreen.thought I was going to go deaf.
This makes me happy I can't wait try mine full powerWell today was the day for a test,no cross-winds,road just re-surfaced and my termignoni exhaust on. Well i hit
250km/h than i slowed down.I had a little bit left but not much.With my stock exhaust all i could get was 232km/h.
A good exhaust makes a big difference in top speed with stock sprockets.
You wasn't going that fast Road Hog if the dog ran into your back wheel.Thanks Drewster123,you just made my day,i knew it would be out, but not by that much.I will not
be testing top speed again for a while.There are just too many dogs on my testing road.I had 1dog
hit my back wheel which made me go into a wobble and i almost lost it a few months ago.lucky for
me i was only going about120km/h at that time.Seeing that there are no dog catchers where i live
i might have to find another testing road.
