Paul, is your speedo accurate cos you keep saying you took yours to 130mph but mine starts to sound like a strangled cat at around 110mph. My speedo is reading pretty much spot on and i'd never dream of letting her try and go anywhere near 130!!

clare,

Fancy a trip out in mine then,will show you how fast it goes / what it sounds like.............

had one of them speed monitor things at the side of the road - doing 70 mph up to it - it flashed up with 70 mph on it.

i know my RSTURBO is well out - my my RS1600i seams spot on.

Even coming back from Jamsport ,i had pieman on his bike behind me - he flashed me when we were doing a ton !!! - thats what my speedo was reading.
