    A certain Scotsman who visited our fine shores a few years back told us he was a star around the Ring. My husband took him for a ride over Wairarapa way and had to keep slowing down for him to catch up. Scotsman was on a late model bike, husband on his 1980s Beemer. Mind you, same guy told us he couldn't eat most vegetables as he was allergic to aspirin...

    I would also be interested at the top speed of the dyno runs on 250's. The 190kph cutout would look most interesting i think. Would be interesting to see if it is actually 190 too.
    Anyone done this?
    I had mine dynoed at 37.5 hps at the rear wheel. Although this was a questionable dyno at best.

    I'd have posted the dyno sheet a while back if I had easy access to a scanner...

    One of the previous owners claimed to have taken it off the clock (180+ km/h) which I kinda believe. How much though is a bit hard to say... Also, I don't know what the speedo deviation is. I've found those helpful "Slow-down" thingy-ma-bobs that have been put up in various places rather helpful... My speedo deviation at ~55 km/h is less than 5 km/h according to those.

    A guy once reckoned he hit a sheep at 160kph and split it in two, and didn't crash.

    I thought this was bullshit until I saw something similar with my own eyes - this guy did crash, but not immediately and could possibly have saved it (the bike not the sheep) if he had been going in a straight line.

    I thought the guys next story of having sex while doing 160kph on a bike a bit far fetched though, unless he considered having a wank as sex.

    I used to have sex doing 160km. But I'm a screamer and opening your mouth at that speed causes you to not be able to breath properly making you asphyxiate and pass out. Last time that happened to me I was already off the road and on gravel, but my super racing skills allowed me to pull the bike back. The cop pulled me over and said he could have given me a ticket - but because I had such mean az skillz he was going to let me off.

    That's true that is.

    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Doable on Thompsons Track here in Canterbury I reckon. Now I'd admit having sex while going in a straight line at speed is impressive

    except some of these stories are actually true, nothing to do with the bike, its just that some riders regardless of what they are on can't ride for s*** anyway
