Just watched this! How mad must you be to do that speed in the wet and when its goin dark! I shit myself touchin the white lines in my car let alone a bike! Its filmed on the Woodhead pass which is a great Road between Sheffield and Manchester!

 

i must confess iv done 185MPH, it was damp, i was riding my zx12r down the bottom of the M2 nice and straight but wouldnt dream of it now im a bit older with kids.

 

i think that locks like kph to me looking at how fast it is imo.

 

not for me i'm afraid. Value my life a bit more than that.

 

defo mph mate

 

new pants for 1 please

 

KPH on an old R1.

 

See how quickly it pulls to 176 from 130....... nearly laid a little poo just watching the vid!

 

Godzilla!!!!! Where you been mate? LOL

I've left you some voicemails again. Your a busy man dude.

 

Some proper dickhead riding there.... Overtaking on blind crests/ double whites/ blind corners in the wet... Not cool, just leaving it all down to luck.

 

I have done the same and feel the same now, mine was in 1991on a modded Suzuki 1100.

First live mapping session on two wheels hey?

Perhaps we can put Autronic on my Busa and you can livemap it seeing as your experienced at this already.

Would love to hear Anna's opinion. LOL

 

good of him to post up the video with his mates reg number

 

deffo kph, for two reasons, he goes past the last truck at 70 on the clock and is only just faster than the lorry, second reason is imo i think you would have to lean into the corners alot more at that speed than they are

 

assuming he is in top gear at 176 he is pulling over 11.5krpm

 

I've done 170/175mph on the back of a K1200s

 

Its all fun and games till u bounce of the road :s

 

I would of thought thats mph otherwise he maxs out at 110mph (176kph) looks way faster than that

 

that would make the other cars in the corners doing 20mph lol

 

thats the reason i've never done my bike test...................cos i'd do it everywhere.....

 

176 on a bike is probably like 100 in most car's in the time it takes to reach it etc.

 

Id say it looks like mph to me? Speeds seem right?

 

very brave or very dumb but cool whatever

 

sorry but I don't agree there, the speed isn't really a problem, but the overtakes are pure stupidity, if he went through your windscreen and headbutted you at 100MPH+ closing speed I think your views would change!

 

i confess ive done 176 on jackos old k5 gixxer thou

the speed comes on soo quicky , were talking seconds , i was only at that speed for around 12- 15 seconds ( bloody fuel light came on , )


but this was done on a local dual carrigeway , eairly eve, barely any traffic whatsoever , i mean i didnt over take a single thing i 2 miles !!



but having ridden alot of bikes ,

i genuinely feel 120 on a bike dosent feel that quick , i used to do it on my ninja without even crouching ,


but 176 did lol

and im sure jacko got a wee bit more out of it lol .............



time and place for stupid speeds imo ,


beef

 

its weird have 100 odd doesnt feel quick on a bike lol, me mate has just passed his test and bought an r6 so obviously the words "go on then throw us your helmet" were said when he was wheling it out the gargae, so of i go in jeans and a jacket and whop it round to 155 which is a little silly but it seems like fun at the time

 

some of those overtakes were a little on the silly side.

in the 7 months i had my thundercat (600cc) i regulary brushed 150 in the wet lol, all on motorways tho as i had a good 25 miles of m4 on the ride to work every day

i once had it flat out in the dry, but that was only 160 lol

it all came to sudden stop tho last year, at 45mph

deffo is mph too in the vid

 

jack frost from holeshot racing has done a verified 250mph at elvington on a turbo hyabusa and did 230mph in a standing kilometre at totb. proper nutter!

 

What a pair of cocksuckers, no respect for any fooker else! When the guy hits his max speed, he can't even keep it on his side of the road! Too many bikers seem to think they own the bit of road that oncoming traffic occupies, as well as their own.
2 wheel'd tombstones!

 

apmsl @some of the replies on here ! i personally thought they were riding like a pair of pussies .lol
the thing that made me chuckle the most is when the twat on the r1 got stuck between the white lines and on the cat eyes , those fuckers are slippery at that speed . i bet his ringpiece nearly swallowd the bike lol.

 

196 gixer 1000

207 zx12r

and been offered a busa to ride that defo does more than the 220 it says on the clocks


100 aint fast till your doing it on the front wheel lol

 

does look like a circa 1999 R1.. I've had a couple, bikes aren't like (most) cars, that sort of speed on a 1000cc sports bike is easily obtainable and not as scary as driving a car near those speeds IMO. Also it's worth noting that a more modern 1000cc bike is a good bit faster than that, my zx10r would have eaten my old R1's over 100mph.

 

is there any1 on this thread that can take video footage off a vhs or sony handycam tape and host it ?

 

my out of the box 10r did 116 in first gear and had another 5

 

Theres no way thats a genuine 176mph, the bike reaches the top speed far too quick after he overtakes the other one and he turns it far too easy, he's defintly flat out in 6th gear though, you can count the gear changes from the start of the video. I reckon he must have a much bigger than standard rear sprocket to get the speedo reading that speed. My mate has a gsxr with a 57 tooth rear sprocket which he can get to say 186mph on the speedo everytime he goes out when in reality it actually only reaches a top speed of 117mph!

 

Cause all you car drivers dont ever speed......

 

WOW he has more balls than brains, his nuts must be really big

 

It looks quite down hill to me where he nails it.

 

mad

 

Great aren't they

I used to work mine off the limiter all the time to marvel at it's top speeds for every gear

Pretty sure mine would only manage 108mph in 1st off the limiter, was yours the newer underseat model? mine was the previous model.
