Used to regularly do a 400 mile ride in four hours with three gas stops and a 30 minute lunch break on the Interstate 5 from LA to Oakland/SF Bay area.

Brave man, lots of Smokies on I 5 but lots of trucks to dodge around too. Coffee at Fresno?

Well I'm a pussy. I've visited 220kph a few times on my Ducati ST4, for technical reasons......

That was plenty fast enough for me. The bike had other ideas but since it seemed a good idea for me to stay aboard, it agreed to gather in the horses.

To be truthful, I find it much more fun riding between 140 - 170k (on closed private roads Constable - honest ) and anything much above that causes excess tension in the sphincter muscles.

100k on our generously provided and excellently policed public roads.

I had a dream I did 250km/h on my TL, was such a vivid dream, could of sworn it actually happened (last weekend on the Motonui straight)

Ive had 250 on the clock after fitting and calibrating the speedo healer (only a week ago)
Still got some legs to go.
I have a top speed recall button hehe

Actual Timed resluts of a Hyosung 650:

Hyosung Comet 650
2005
206.03kph
12.30s Standing 1/4

Eh? standing quarter at 206?
I do low 11's on the TL and go through the traps at about 197!?

Yeah, shit hole of a place. Dusty, dirty and dry. The trucks come up so fast as you are going 2-3 times as fast as they are.

On one trip, I had a CHP pull into the gas station I was filling up in and the cop came over to me, shook his finger and said that I had better slow down. He said a few truckers had been talking about some guy on a bike. I just smiled and said I would.

Great fun really, and on the Busa, it was a dream ride. The bike would hunker down and just rip. I'd cruise at ~150 mph and the bike was maybe around 7500-8000 rpm. Not even breathing hard.

[Manxman]

I was doing 45kph in my work carpark, with both feet on the ground & not moving....but that's cos the negative lead to my battery was loose and the electrics were playing up.

[Usarka]

as per title. just wondering what sort of speeds you guys get up to. so what speed you hit and what sort of bike you did it on

Whats the fastest you've been in your work vehicle without lights or siren???

[driftn]

Red line top gear. Over 160 mph I guess.

On a closed road 159.95 mph average speed not at the red line

[Tank]

I have seen 235 on my hyo, on a closed road of course.

Steve

According to all the websites the top speed of the hobag is only 210 (some have it as 203)

So either your speedo is well out or possibly you were looking at the clock 2:35

[skidMark]

Who cares..........straight roads are like watching a fat fucker set a record for eating hamburgers.

That is mildly entertaining....most entertaining thing ive seen is the guy on the gixxer 600 who thought he would show off and blasted past me while i was under brakes into a turn.....wobbled all the way through, then put it indo a ditch at about 30 k's an hour on the ATNR.

that was funny, how fast have i been, errr ive done 240 on a 06 zx10r..... then saw the roundabout 100 metres ahead....

Yes i literally said to myself you are a fucking dead bastard man.....while hard on the picks with a bike trying to stoppie still doing 160kph.

speeding like that is for the racetrack.

that moment on the zx10r kinda did me over on the

"go nuts on the road thing"

honest im a total nana now...

i swear...
