I'm guessing in the 170's actually
If I was pushed I would have to 176km/h exactly...

I'll wager on it busting 88Mph, but im pretty sureit's not going to start to go back in time.

If you get 170's in the highs, you might be in a bit of trouble.

Make sure they record how long it was going for before it hit that speed........

They should be able to tell you roughly how many kilometres it's travelled.

good luck, according to http://www.deeknow.com/notes/motorbike/ ... px250.html it may hit 170km/h, but the distance, yeah thatd definately be something to follow up on with the dyno guys too. Or at least get them to make odo readings at 0km/h and then get them to flog it through the gears to top and see how far it took you.

we all know it won't do 180.
but can they measure actual speed, or can they just go by the speedo?

i though dynos only measured horsepower and torque.

No, they measure at what speed you reached your top horse power as well..

But if it scores in the high 170's they could argue that the calibration wasnt that far off. Hence the requirement to document how far it took for it to get that speed, and then go back and measure where you pulled out into the street, to where you got pulled over, to make sure it's way off in that regard.

With ZERO wind resistance you are going to get a higher top speed....
