he we go!

I got 0.2552s could be interesting to see what others get. And yes I am aware times are different when you aren't expecting things.

Also interesting to note that studies have been done linking reaction times to IQ levels, those with lower reaction times also have lower IQ as the brain operates on a more basic and un-evolved level, however as more options are added tot he test the more intelligent regain the upper hand for reaction times.

how many seconds did it take for you to react to it and close it down?

They make it sound so bad and so mad. Most modern bikes are idling at 200kmh and by the time you find sixth you're way above that.
When you're way above that your reaction times is virtually non existent... it's immediate or it's all over rover.

Yeah, got some mates who were into superbikes for a while, knocked on 300 on occasion, they often told tales of how 200 seemed slow after a good thrash and felt like putting the stand down at 100. I suppose it's like getting out of a fighter plane and going home in a Cessna.

what if it was a Cessna fighter plane?

**simonnn** · 29th April 2010, 18:51

Its not just any speed that kills according to our expert Kearnes its any speed =>212kmh.

Exactly. Once you're used to travelling at a high speed anything less seems real slow. BUT conversely your reaction times and concentration increases to way higher levels.
