    I saw 190mph (not sure but I think that's 300kph-ish) on the speedo of my last car - French motorway from Caen to Le Mans....

    Never on a bike though, and probably never likely to whilst in NZ....

    I see 300 on my speedo everytime I get on...of course, the needle isn't pointing at it
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    I once did 780 Knots, thats 1250 Km/h. Does that count?
    If you love it, let it go. If it comes back to you, you've just high-sided!

    Sorry no can do - he was an aprrentice who used my bike as a pet project for tuning 2-stokes.
    He made the power valves especially lethal making 2/3's grunt kick in over 2000 rpm (10,700 - 12,700).
    Last i heard from him was he was in the US working in the winter for Bombardier as a race mechanic, and in the summer for a Yamaha Tuning shop.
    Bayride (back then it was Suzuki) ended up borrowing it for a weeks as it was faster than their race bike.
    Stuff that i do know that works are:
    -Iridium plug (worth ever $ of the $25 i paid for it on that single banger)
    -Motul 8000? (sorry cant remember number) fully synthetic
    -Air ram to airbox
    -80% avgas 20% 98 mix, with a pinch of nail polish remover.
    Sadly the bike blew to smitherines after 24,000k's of abuse. Oil pump failed, which turned the big end into a fine powder, which locked the rings which waped the ports, which crachked the piston which blew the thread out of the plug. All while i was getting airbourne at 150kph over the hills on 'Ol Tauranga rd'
    I miss that bike

    Woo - I'm in

    299 on the speedo seen down the back straight of Pukekohe. And it was genuinely at Puke. I'd never consider breaking the legal limit on public roads. It's dangerous. A child might run out in front of you...
