    Those 2004 KRR ZX150 look awesome. Can't find too much info on them though, got any idea of what HP they put out?

    If you want a mean bike, look at the CBR125RR (yes 125) or the RS125, or the Cagiva Mito 125 (looks like a Ducati 998).... those are MEAN bikes....

    Madcat, the RGV250 has an actual speed of about 205kmh.... but on the speedo on a derestricted one, you get about 215 on the speedo, and on one worked by Ray Clee... about 230kmh.....
    See Robert Taylor for any Ohlins requirements www.northwest.co.nz

    Yeah I agree, but we gotta talk realistic here, that 2004 KR 150 is a hell of a lot more realistic than a RS125 will be, well in the next few years or so that is. Would love an RS250... *dreams*

    My advice is to wait till you have a full liscence and get a good 600 or 1000 or ofcourse a Harley. Cheers Toddy

But as the last post said, put a different sprocket on it and you should be all sweet. I imagine that stock, this bike will hit 140 and that is about it.
    My 1986 GF250 will take you to 50kmh on the dot in first gear. I've had it topped out at 160kmh with a little bit more in the revs (had two too many teeth on the sprocket), regeared i hit just under 170kmh on the way up to Silverdale. Probly had more, i thought that was fast enough so i dropped it back down to 130kmh

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Well, I tried a GSX250 when I was shopping. I bought the Bandit because it felt more nimble and had a bunch more go (70 in second, >110 in 3rd).
    Look, it's an itsy bitsy Bandit.
