Top speed on a Fazer?

[Looney tune]

70mph is the top speed I'm sure  :o

I got mine easily up to 900 mph by painting 0s on the end of all the numbers on the speedo. Really works.

Top Gear - 10 miles an hour! lol  :rollin

[JZS 600]

Top speed's OK I suppose but if you want to go faster, buy another bike (and try it on the track of course!)

because of the gearing it will only do 135.8 which is what mine topped out on the dyno, it does feel like it needs another gear, I have no doubts if 4th 5th and 6th were a little taller it would do 150

Sorry but this isn't valid with standard 15/48 gearing, I've just recently changed my sprockets and so far I've touched 136, and that was nowhere near the limiter.

If you don't believe anyone here, check http://www.gearingcommander.com/ - The FZS600 has a limiter speed of 172mph, not that it's ever going to get there. At peak power it is geared for 143.1.

As for speedo inaccuracy, well that is a different ballgame entirely. I'm running a 120/70 rather than the standard 110/70. Exactly 130 on the speedo worked out at 120.2 on GPS.

145 gps figure, 150 on speedo, non standard gearing. M27.
145 indicated but no where near revving out, A32. Same higher gearing.
only one tooth up on front.
Bird will hit indicated 190 on the A32 in 2 places on standard gearing    and seen 210 on speedo on the straight at the ring.

95 BHP is good for 145 and that's about it. Irrespective of speedo, bullshit etc.
Need 165 BHP to see 185 with good aerodynamics

Which is pretty good considering the aerodynamics of an upright commuter.

[/quote]flatter bars and later fairing help but I have the sail area of a barrage balloon so yes it is. My 95 bhp XS1100 in the 70s did the sameish without the fairing but had to lay flat
