I love my bike

[White trash]

I'm assuming you've found a vid of a 636 speedo reading some dangerous speed? My Gixxer 6 was reading 287 at Puke last year through the kink. Took the same bike on the same gearing to the flying quaters and it read 283.

Cool.

Look at the timesheets and, ohhhhhh, 261kph real.

Sorry Buggy, speedos aint worth a tin of shit.

Roade Deanos SP1 at the same event. Got to 290!

Check the sheets, bugger, 263kph.

Grrrrrrrr me like that loverly, just listen to the Gixxer boys bleat
good video mate, will stick that in my library

OK, just spent the 10 minutes downloading and another thing comes to mind.

That straight is about three times as long as Pukekohe.

You're welcome.

Yer, it took a while to reach the indicated 287kmph too...but like you say Jimmy, more like 260 in real time.

Easily three times as long, as I said I could get only 250 kph on Puke , I will say that my entry via castrol wasnt super quick nor was my braking distance short, in other words I was riding carefully, I reckon on a race tyre set up bike and a nice track I could have got maybe 270 kph tops, for me I am a fat prick as well which aint going to help me much.
Bug reckons he got the slipstream of a CBR1000 which dragged him to 285kph, fair enough, my experience with 1000 cc bikes is they come and go that quick I would be able to be dragged behind them unless they through me a rope which in itslef bring on another set of issues

[inlinefour]

I reckon that I could be almost talked into buying one of these

[bugjuice]

k, a few quick points, then I'm off ta bed..
WT - didn't say it was any shorter or longer than Puke.. You just said the speedo telling me 285 must have stunk of bs.. so all I did was show you some evidence that it can achieve this. Ok, so this is an 05 and mine is an 04, but they aren't too far apart. The speedos I've been told by kawa lovers and haters, that altho pretty much every speedo is out, these happen to be not too far out. I want to get a GPS and actually find out for myself, but so I've been told by many, I pass this on..

Quaz - I was seeing 270 by the kink by myself on a few occasions, mostly 260+ tho on average. The 285 max'd was slipping a ZX10 which i knew was coming. I saw him way off on the start/finish, he was then exiting Jennian as I was starting the esses, then as I was getting off from Castrol, he was just starting Castrol. As I was gassing up to speed, so was he, and passed around half way, and I saw that he was coming close, so nipped in as he disappeared. No way in hell I could keep up, but that half second break from head on wind helped me out, and just after the kink saw 285.. Really wanna do it again!! Just need a smaller camera. Who's got a lipstick-cam? LB..??

You don't need a GPS, get a bike computer that reads to 300 k's. They are dead accurate and cheaper than GPS. They'll even save the top speed so that you don't have to watch it at 287 in the kink.
Be warned, reality hurts when 'over 200' is only 180 k's.

yeah, I know.. someone said to me that a speedo could be up to 10% out.. which would mean my 285 would be nearer 255kph.. which is still quick, but would suck slightly..
