Not sure. But I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be raving about it hitting it on a public forum...

The specs say 136 if you do 17 tooth front sprocket you may be able to do over 140 mph.

Many moons ago, myself and Gareth were making progress along the M26 on our way to the Kent Foccer meet and both had an indicated 140mph  showing on our FZS600 speedos.

I've had 135mph.......with a passenger!
Would've gone quicker but a car changed lanes about a quarter of a mile in front so I shut off.

Think it did me a favour, as the passenger filled the gap between me and the top box which can cause the wobbles at higher speed.
I don't ride like that often, i think it's just something that you've gotta get out your system......per bike.  :evil [size=78%] [/size]
