Should definitely get to 100kph, 5th gear and 6000rpm or so. I usually get to 60 on 3rd, 80 on 4th and as I said, 100 on 5th. 110kph might be a tad hopeful depending on your weight and the roads you're riding.

Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.

Yep, what bosslady said.
Hers does make it up to 130, mine to 120 (on closed roads and race tracks of course only...), but all bets are of if the road is slightly uphill. The difference between mine and hers might be due to that one tooth more on my front sprocket, the 30 k more milage or what ever. Anyway, your bike should make much more than 80 in 5th gear. But yeah, rider weight can be an issue as the power to weight ratio of GNs is already quite low.

I briefly dated someone who used to work at Scooterazzi (good scooter shop in Wgtn). He's a bit of a lard arse (sorry Fatal) and he got mine up to 110kph easily. I'm not that skilled a rider, so I can't really get it up to that speed, but he had no problem.

Haha getting it up to that speed has nothing to do with skill, I CAN do it, but I'm happy with 100kmh, it sounds sick enough as it is, why make it worse, lol. As grashopper has said, I've got it up to 130 or so, but I hate to do it to the poor wee thing.

clerly you haven't been round bikes long enough to know that even on a GN250 there are skills needed to get it up to that speed.

Nothing to do with anything. Stick by what I said. It's hardly rocket science. I own one of the blimmin things and im not particularly skilled.
