    The fastest I`ve ever been clocked was 178 in a 40... Although I have seen the speedometer past 195 (Unknown Acutal Speed as the speedos are usually well off at that point). 1996 Suzuki GSXR 750, Stage III Jet Kit, Factory Ignition Advancer, Yoshimura RS-3 Exhaust, Gears and a bad day at work!



    And yes, ordinarily I would`ve ran from the cop.. but this cop was smart... and waited for me to return from the one way in/one way out road. He ended up pretty cool, wrote me up for 103/40 (If you really consider that a break) and no recklace driving... I rode the bike away. Definitely thought I was meeting an inmate that night!

    Let`s just say that I-88 is still showing vapor trails from a "brisk" 115 mph run in the Maxima.

    Ya`ll scare me with these speeds on roads with other cars! All it takes is some old lady to pull out in front and you are toast.



    I do hope you take it careful! I have seen too many wrecks with cars rear ended or driven off the road and lost control to high speed.



    Just my sobering thought for the evening.

    In addition, those of us in northern climates really need to be careful. I just had a friend of my niece`s roll his new Monte Carlo because he hit a patch of black ice and lost control.

    a) Redcar, is that I-65?



    b) The fastest I ever got caught at was 95 in a 55 but that was several years ago and I did not get a ticket for it from the Illinois State Police (Thank God!).

    Both the Z28 (modified) and the Lexus 400 are good for better than 150 mph but they will never see it. Much too dangerous for me and especially anyone else on the road. Anyone can drive in a straight line at high speed. The true analysis of skill is at the track or strip. There acceleration, lateral g`s, torque management and braking come into play.

    Also, most speedos on cars are very optimistic.

    That pic reminded me of certain parts of I-65.

    Washington DC to Madison, WI in 10 hours, 8 minutes (935 miles) including gas stops and the 1 hour time difference.



    Saw two cops along the way, a quick flash of red/blue and then nothing after that... This was in 1998, and I was in my race gear - Dainese Safety Pro 1pc suit w/Knox back protector, Daytona boots ($700/pr), Ku````ani GPR gloves ($160/pr), Arai Quantum e helmet.



    My buddy and I used to purposely try to outrun the cops back in the day...now we`ve matured and only run when chased.



    BTW, most speedo`s are very "optimistic" at higher speeds - my 97 YZF showed 200mph, but top speed was at best 170. My 99 R1 shows a 208mph top speed, again top speed is about 170...Friends Hayabusa shows well over 220, actual probably around 190. That Hayabusa is scary...too heavy & waaaay to fast!



    [Edit] Oh yeah, the nice thing about a bike is that it doesn`t take too long to get up to speed...the YZF1000 did (according to mag`s) 0-60 in 2.8, 0-100 in 4.9, 0-170 in 3100 feet, 70 - 0 in 135 feet. Not much road is required for a quick "test" (i.e. Interstates).

    I never realized how fast 100mph was until I tried to stop quickly! Racing and track schools pay off big time. [/Edit]

    Thanks, but you`ve just proved it untrue! Now I have to think of a new one...
