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?..
Anti static spray
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....
Dont know what to put here
Come on down to the 1/4 mile sprints in the Wairarapa in November

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.

GPS it is then. I might just go and buy one, strap it to the bike along with the digital camera.
