Someone put their front tire up against a wall and lift up the rear with a stand- then see how fast it goes.

If you think that's too dangerous- well so is doing 145+ mph on the highway, lol.

145 MPH on the interstate for me and I backed off. I'm only 162lbs and felt it had a bit more to go. I heard the 8% deal as well. I'm not sure where it kicks in but you're supposed to take 8% off your top speed and thats how fast you were really going.

Just wandering what the speedo stops at and how fast some of yall have had it?

55. Sometimes 65. Honest. True story.

I just bought an 01 F4i and the guy i bought it from said it would do 154 with him on it and he is about 75 lbs. more than me...so im thinkin a little above 160 for me, but i havnt had a chance to open it up..

When you're up that high weight matters less than profile and aerodynamics. You can eliminate some drag by tucking properly and making sure you're not wearing anything that flaps or sticks out. It doesn't need to be *out in the wind* to affect the aerodynamic profile. (ie; speed hump behind the helmet on high-end racing leathers)
