I just bought this bike like several months ago, I looked all the ZXR250Cs for sale on TradeMe the speedo only goes up to 180kmh on all of them but mine goes to 240kmh.

I just wondering if the speedo has been changed from another model maybe to hide its real mileage ?

Thanks boys

May be Malaysian assembled, is it 1999-2004, they were made in japan 1991-1998 then made in malaysia, I think they changed the stroke and had a 240kph speedo may be other changes ?

The question has to be asked, does it do 240kph...? 'Cause that'd be MEAN!

You'd be lucky to get it over a REAL 180kmh. Most speedos tend to be quite optimistic, so you might get an INDICATED 200kmh.

Once you feel confident at heavy braking, find a good, long straight road with no other traffic and top it out. It helps if you put your chest against the fuel tank. Take it easy for now!
