Tested top speed of an 05 6R was 162 mph or 260 kph.

PB mag in the UK clocked one at just over 170 MPH (standard).

Very impressive :shock:

Rev limiter as in 15 grand in 6. No proof unfortunately, just remember the strange sensation of the thing suddenly dying for a second, then picking back up, then dying, etc.

I saw 210km/h at the racetrack on my 2000 ZX6R, possibly went faster but was too busy taking a corner to check - bike is essentially standard

Forgotten Era Z1100 Sidecar geared for Eastern Creek saw 220km at the end of the straight (from a cop with a radar gun that popped in)Remember thats hauling 2ppl and she's not a lightweight

Down the straight at EC ive seen 272km/hr..03 GSXR 1000
Had plenty more to go, but I ran outta road.
Never tried top speed on the public road cause I like my
licence to much.

quickest I've seen on the MFP12 is 280. That was with all the touring gear on........

- it still had plenty left.......

I have independent witnesses, no pictures required .....
