Perhaps it was a bit degrading ... and in and of itself I didn't have a huge problem with that comment. However I'm getting concerned with how people are taking comments so personally lately. It's an internet forum dudes. Let's use it to discuss bike related issues and help a fella rider out.

C'mon, let's all feel the Honda luv

well i got this guy i know at the track and he said on his new 1000 gsxr he was hittin like 210 or something..cause he used a little thing called..sprockets!. and he had a gps locater and so thats where he got his mph from..anything is possible..when u have slat flats.

I am surprised that this post is still growing...

I might have been harsh in stating that the other comments were wack, so I do apologize.

However, SquireSCA are you saying that the weight does not have anything to do with the way an object has a potential to be lifted? Que?
Woah, I hope you dont work for NASA!(j/k) You gotta to be kidding me though...... The wings of an airplane are design specifically for the maximum weight capacity of the plane + threshold precent. The wing is made for aerodynamic pressure gradient to create the lifting force. Also, the main problem with your comment is that you said “It's not about the weight. It's about how air flows over the bike.” The air is going not only over the bike but underneath. That’s the key to creating the lift, if the different of pressure from over and under or lower and higher pressure becomes too great; the bike will lift. Anyone who took thermodynamics knows that pressure goes from high to low, in bike or plane case its from down to up aka lift……

Buddy, you might be a grown up but that does not mean you are anymore wiser than I. Go back to school…..

Geez -- the answer is no. Even with sprockets and wings and thermodynamics a normally aspirated gixxer will in no way shape or form do 237mph. Just won't happen.

Damn, this thread is startin to sound like school

just to let you dudes know that 237kmph is about 148+mph.. ... our punkass f4i's can to more than.

Im pretty sure they mean MPH not KPH. Why would you brag about your bike being able to do like 80MPH. No one really cares about that.

The problem with an GSXR1K doing 200+ is not the weight of the bike. It is the aerodynamics and wheelbase for the most part. Making that bike 100 pounds heavier would not make it more likely to do 200+.

That the wackiest comment ever, all of them actually.
Over 200 mph equal a sudden lift off for a bike. It will be too difficult to keep a 370 pound bike down at those speeds. Unless you are a 500 lb rider may be you can pull that off. Fatty!!


LOL.. yeah, right. No one's ever gone over 200mph on a bike.. never.

Most just get shot up into space 'cause of the "sudden lift off".

she told me she had been up to 237 mph on it. was she full of it ?


Yep, unless she can show you a timeslip. If she can show you a timeslip, buy that MOFO and go landspeed racing.

This post is getting more interesting. ok, I never said that it cant be done. There were many bikes that went well over 200 mph.
http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2001/JerryChan.shtml
However, I cant not find a single engine bikes and especially 1000cc bikes that did 200+mph.. please someone find a reference.

Just for a regular GXSR-1000 with some mods; it would be difficult to over come the air resistance. Even with drag-bike fairings it would still not get up that high in mphs'. However, regular fairing are not design to withstand that kind of pressure that will be all around the bike. That was my implication about the "take off". There will be an insane amount of high pressure build up in the tail section of the bike/car at those speeed. (thats where the invent of spoilers came about)

Secondly, my comment about the 237mph=148+kmph was refering to the past comments that people were making about that gauge reading was done in kilometers. I dont think if a 1000 did 237kmph it would have been a big deal and no one will have an interest in it. 'cause its not a record for a 1000.

SquireSCA, so now you saying that weight is an important factor? Thats cool!
