% of 150mph Riders

[killerrudy]

I used to keep a calender and post all the days I went over 100 mph to work, I stopped when all the days were filled.

Especially when the daily commute involves the rest of traffic going 100 with you!

 

[notright]

150, lots. Toped it out a very few times when it was stock. I haven't tried to top it out since I got my high flow filter, exhaust and programer. but it does make 150ish much faster.

You ain't kidding bro, at 65 you are a hazard, at 75 you pass no one, at 85 you pass few and few pass you, at 95 there is always some azzhat that wants to go. I am not kidding!
This is my everyday routine.
If you do 55 you better be pulling a ramp behind you.

My fastest top speed pass was in the dirt at EL Mirage in November 09' at 185mph.

 

[jphilipson]

I usually will squirt it up to about 150 every time I ride either on the Busa or the XX .. although the Busa gets there a lot faster lol

 

[Deno_n_Philly]

I did 140 by myself. I had me and my wife last night.. her top speed 137 on 95N in Philly.. great day.

So to answer the question

https://www.hayabusa.org/forum/gene...97-what-percent-riders-have-been-150-mph.html

Looks like about 85%

 

[macon454]

I think so

 

[Turbo Bob]

I think the question should be "how many have buried your speedometer" seeing that the speed O is so far off. I just bought my Busa and have a Speed O Healer on the way. What good is bragging if you don't have the correct speed to brag about. I have had my ZX14 to 195mph verified on GPS and corrected on the speed O.

 

[notright]

I think so

heah' I think so too

 

[head east busa]

well I hit 168 and 171 but it was speedo based still over 150 though even with the 10% variance , I don't want to be arrested though that's my limiter. on a regular basis I cruise it with everyone else.

Eh, not everybody is comfortable going fast, I know tons of people who can't/won't go very fast other fast bikes. I have friends that are afraid of doing 140 on their liter bikes and friends who are afraid of doing 120 on their 600s. However I do question the motives of owning a sportbike if you’re not going to experience it every now and then.

 

[Jdog109socal]

must try once if you own a Busa

 

[djsin]

with the nos and rev limiter raised 1200 rpm i have hit top speed...
and attempt to again every time i ride

 

[expat1970]

ya im pretty sure iv been there a few times

 

[Ryu88]

I can't say for sure, hit just about 150 (maybe a hair over/under) on my pals CBR 900RR. However when going that fast I tend to look at the road and not the speedo, lol.

Hit close to 200mph in a couple of different cars though (I know it don't count towards this, but was still neat)
