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

Tis a Yamahahahaha G. Just thrash it like you stole it.Gixxer 4 ever
It really did look very unloved. Specially as it was next to the R1 that the whole crowd wanted to look at. Gixxer 4 ever
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...
