I know I'm an asshole and a squid, etc but I've brought the front wheel down at faster speeds than some of these guys with liter bikes!

I don't know if they're being sheeple and acting all "PC" or if it's "old guy with a Porsche" syndrome.

i hear ya, i've hit 140 or 150 so many times its not even worth mentioning, but it doesnt take but a few seconds

I think it was about 220MPH on a friends Gixxer 600, it was the mohawk helmet that made it fast.

186 indicated and it was still pulling on my 1000.
A little over 150 at Jennings on the back straight.

When I had my 02 R1
10.4@ 143mph 1/4mi
173/4mph "indicated" looked at the speedo just enough to check, while running against a Z06 w/boltons 500whp + 100shot.

On the ZX10 - supposedly 124mph indicated on a few hundred foot straight.
