Lets start off with a word on safety . You should only say I DID NOT OK.
When on the Ouray trip I DID NOT have an open stretch of road with no crossroads and no traffic so I DID NOT go for a little speed run . Well let me say I DID NOT hit 151 mph and I DID not get her out of 4th gear ( third shift light was not flashing) .So i wonder what she would top out at? That is the fastest I HAVEN'T GONE and no it is not fast enough how about u ?
The fastest I haven't gone on my lil 695 wasn't arount 125-130mph. I think it would probably get a little front end light at that speed. I do know I had to wave you fella's on the bigger bikes around a couple times on the way to Ouray..... of course I ride like a granny... ;)
I've never seen about that same speed as smoking on my 999. And most definitely not on I-10 between Tucson & Phoenix.
I never would flog a machine just to see how fast it could run, and I do not agree with H.S.Thompson's writing, On my tombstone they will carve "IT NEVER GOT FAST ENOUGH FOR ME "
Roughly 60 mph. On my road bike. Once. Downhill.
Oh wait, we're talking about motorcycles.
Never more than 10 mph over the speed limit. ;)
I've never gone over 115 indicated (come on, it was only a 620)
side-by-side with a WRX STI on I-25 and then hid in a Ford dealership parking lot when we got spotted and chased by a statie. I'm a role-model for little kids, for pete's sake. Can't set a bad example... [cheeky]

That's impressive. I've only broken 50 on my old mountain bike (with slicks, full tuck, holding the fork legs, very steep road). That was scary enough.
last years ride down to New Mexico, there is a long stretch from Raton to Toas, on that road i hit 130. On one hand it felt kinda skeerry adn on the other it was quite the rush. [thumbsup]

Munch, is that a radar detector to your left? if so what kind is it? Accessories?
Beltronic Vector 995 sitting on a Techmount stand. Also use the H.A.R.D. System for wireless led helmet display.
excellant footage munch!!! not that I have ever seen that sight before, good, comfortable, stable top end. more people should own a MTS !! ( and if you pull the mirrors off its even faster, heh,heh )
Am I the only one to have maxed my bike out at the track? ???

I did not pass you this summer going up Horsepower Hill... I did not get smoked by those rice burners!!! I simply yielded the road so as not to impede the flow of commerce...
Well going out this weekend so i wont b trying to brake 160 might have to hit 5th gear. We will c if we cant find a nice stretch of road where it will be safe. Common people dose not matter where u didn't go that fast track,back road, school zone we don't care just share with us!
