View Full Version : I wanna be clocked...
Astrocat
20th October 2006, 21:10
Where can i go to, or ask, or whatever to get myself clocked at whatever i can wring out of my VTR 1000? Im sure that the bike has been modified, as it is just a nutty beast compared to other VTR's i ridden. ??? Dyno will give me HP and sorts, but i wanna know my true ground speed. Maybe Merimeri drag strip? Any suggestions, besides the flying past some cop, or a speed camera that wont keep up?..:innocent:

flying quarter mile, dunno when where, or what it will cost but that'd be the best legal way

speed camera will have no problem right out to over 300k, so unless you've got a hayabusa-powered vtr, a camera will have no trouble....

Sweet as with the camera thing, but wouldnt wanna tempt fate, even with no front plate. Bummer speeding isnt seen as an ok thing sometimes. Common knowledge that the speedo get inaccurate with top end, so i wanna know how fast im going as i love to push the limit when possible.

I got a VTR 1000 and took it for a blat the other day. Cool ride, but ran out of throttle to use. Ive had a lot of bikes and personally for me, i love twins. The torque is fun to feel and have workin hard.

easy & lawful way is borrow a GPS and compare speed with speedo
travel at 100 km according to the gps and compare with your speedo.
or do it the other way, travel at 100 according to speedo and see what GPS says.
if you r doing 200 hundy then the difference will be close to twice was it was at 100.

Nah Marty he's likely to video his license plate and post the film on the good old intardnet. No need to worry about funerals, but your ex-colleagues will get a bit of a laugh. Not the sharpest tool in the shed. I pointed out and backed up the science that he'd need 230 rear wheel horsepower to get a VTR to 280 km/hr 2 up and he hasn't actually responded yet.
Astrocat
20th October 2006, 21:40
I dont have a death wish, but if i spent my life thinking the worse or thinking "but...." then i will never do anything or spend so much time woundering "but what if.........." then i may never actually get to experience what ever IT is. I dont do IT then someone else will.
Astrocat
20th October 2006, 21:44
get galsses dude, if you could read then you would realise that i was not the one touting the 280kph thing. it was some-else that did that. I told you that actuall ground speed was something quite different from the speedo reading. Get it right.
Astrocat
20th October 2006, 21:46
AND i know personally that you dont need as much HP as your science showed you to get passed 300kph. I got a mate with a blackbird that made 300kph a reality.

Im getting 110bph according to the spec, but im sure im getting a tad more, not much more but a tad more as im sure this thing was played with before i got it. The blackbird is putting out min 164bph

I just checked my revs to speed at 100km/h then an easy calculation showed that the 12,000rpm redline would see me doing 220km/h. Yet to actually confirm that but that's the theoretical top speed of my bike, anyway.

Good thing about bigh bike is that wh you get to the redline, given that the room is avalible to do it, the top end is much highter. Bring on my aprilla. (my next bike that im getting for my birthday) Nice.

Being on KiwiBiker is all about meeting people and going out for rides - the banter is just that - you can't tell who's good/bad/fast/slow/indiferent.
You got an invite in there if you look closely - a lot of people on this forum might sound like knobs but are decent people - then there's c*nts like me who sound reasonable but will kick you inna stones for the price of a pint.
I'm blissfully free from all the posturing and speed freak stuff coz I'm shit and only ride a 250...doesn't stop me chasing 1 Litre Gixxers through twisty roads in the dead of night (I might be shit but I'm a game wee bastard) I think I get a certain amount of respect for being prepared to have a go....but they might just be laughing at me behind my back.
You will be allowed to talk absolute shite if you turn up to a ride and let people get to know you a bit better - unless you turn out to be a real toss pot then no one will tell you what pub they're meeting at!
