FXR150 how quick?

[SuperDave]

So far i got my FXR up to 146 some guy in Taranaki said got his up to 150

Try running that fast Motoracer :-p

w00t, mine was indicating 153 kph on the speedo once

[Suney]

Oh yeah to the Fixxer owners
I've noticed that 95% of the time they don't wave back, I have more chance of getting a wave from a cruiser

[SkOrM]

i allways wave to other bikers if not i nod to them.guess im in that 5%
mine is a 2001 Superdave, yours is a 2002 so naturally yours is quicker

Of course you all know that the speedo's are hard wired to read 7km/h faster than what you're actually doing

True story.

I had heard this. Is it the same for the RGV and RG 150's to0?

[Two Smoker]

Too be honest, I can run faster than a FXR150... Well almost!

Na, they are great bikes for comuting and having a bit of fun and are more than capable of keeping up with the traffic.

ofcourse you can run faster than YOUR FXR.... considering it isnt really going at all...

RG150 reads a good 10-15kmh above actual speed... When i was "passing" Loosebruce when he was on his Gixxer his speedo was reading about 5-6kmh more than mine...

I had one upto 149kph on the downward slope just before the Mt. Wellington off ramp.

If you want a FXR in good working condition, my partner and I might be selling our FXR, but I can only confirm that next week.

It's 2002 FXR150 in the blue colour, less than 6000k's on the clock, had service and WOF in Feb.

Not what I had in mind, if it was less than 6000ks on the clock, just serviced and just cartwheeled down the road I 'd be your buyer.

lol sweet as

If we crash it before we sell it I'll let ya know

[vifferman]

i fell in love with them for a while now hate the things, they are just to damn small (literally) you'd have to be a midget to ride one! i'm looking at a honda vt250fg that has had a brand new engine put it in, and is basically a brand new bike, for $2000 what do you think, should i get it?

What's wrong with your SR250? :spudwhat:
VT250 should be a good bike.

[gamgee]

it's to slow and a vt250 is one of the faster 250 bikes, almost keeps up with the cbr's etc

Well I must of got one that they got a bit excided when they were doing the speedo, cos it was about 12kph out at 50kph. And sure enough it seams like you must really be going fast cos it read 147kph when I wound it right up.

[Kawasaki_Ninja]

Yeah the FXR's definatly have speedo issues, i had mine fixed a while ago and you can tell the difference, lol i kind of liked it when i thought i was going faster. Although, these bikes are fine on the motorway, you can cruise at about 120 and just give it a bit mroe gas to overtake, no worries.
