I got my '05 Busa almost a month ago now, nearly 2000KM on it already, Yoshimura full Duplex race system installed, power commander 3 and Dyno run scheduled tomorrow! So far i'm simply in love with the bike... Now for the topic:
I did my first top speed run yesterday, at the limiter's 299KMH limit... Now i was gonna install a smart TRE on the bike but i figured after that run that it was pointless... The speedometer wont indicate more than 300 anyway, the end of the needle's travel corresponds to the speed limit!!!!! So unless i replace my meter with an aftermarket one that i wont even be able to trust the precision from... I wont even know my speed above 300KMH!
So for my part, unless its for a radar run or competition, its useless to get rid of the limiter. I personnaly don't believe you will be able to tell the difference between 299 and 320KMH just by the feeling of it, its hard enough to find good spots to keep that kinda speed up for more than a few moments (Here in Quebec anyway).
I dont know if its the same situation with the UK and american versions which reads in MPH!?!
