(around 185-190mph)

yes sometimes you do get off spedo readings but you gotta trust the ole radar gun and math.. time from point a to point b... thats why I remarked in my post about how my 600 will read quadruple what I am going.. because of gearing... my R1 is 1 up in the front and 3 down in the back
which is same as 6 down in the back... better top end...
for stunting I go oppisite 1 down at least 15up in the rear so I don't stall when doing slow stuff with no throtle hand...
for those who didn;t follow I am talking the teeth on the gears in the front and back.....
PS blackbirds are fun bikes to ride but not the fastest bikes on the streets... the new gsxr 1000 will stomp anything I have ridden light to light... the busa will not catch the 1000 till at least 150mph then the busa pulls on it... the busa is not a light to light bike it's a sport cruiser
