I had my old '69 Coupe up to about 120-125 mph....I've had my dad's '00 Grand Cherokee up to almost 110--redlined in top gear going down hill....I've had my Ranger up to about 85 is all, I haven't played around with it much at all. I did G-Tech it though. 19.29@72.9 mph. I was proud of it for dipping under 20.:D:D That thing will easily do 100 though, I'll have to go do that someday just to say I have.;)

I travelled about 45-50 mph on a bicycle last summer down a really steep, long hill. My dad is really into biking and has a little computer thing on it that says your trip distance/total distance/speed/average speed, etc. I was using his bike, a Trek something-or-other. Pretty big rush. I was dumb for not wearing a helmet or other protective gear.:rolleyes:

The speedo on my 89 FZR 1000 was so far off its hard to tell how fast I was going. I do know that it would go 130 in the 1/4 all day long. I'm guessing the fastest I ever had it was around 150. (speedo showing like 170)

I had a VMAX and the top advertised speed was 145... I had to try it. Scary without any wind protection, thought I was gonna get blown off that sucker:D. The speedo goes to 85 in the mustang sooo... over 85;)

Maybe if you had a real bike instead of "one of those ninja bikes" the rush would have been a bit better for you?? :) j/k

2000stanggirl 05-27-2002 10:42 AM

The fastest I've driven is 142 in my '95 Impalla S/S, and runner up is 135 in the Stang. Now that the chip has been reprogrammed and the limiter is removed...I'll have to see what the Stang can *really* do top-end.

crewzin 05-28-2002 10:22 PM

Faster, faster, oooohhhh yea baby
 
Ive been fast a few times but the ones that stand out are on my 7RR (170+) and in the vert with the top down at 165ish. But i would rather talk about how fast you can go around a corner with your knee draggin and pegs folding up on ya. :D

Rice Hunter 05-29-2002 09:11 AM

145 on my CBR, my brother a while ago took me out on his GSX-R 750 and he claims we got up to 160.... I couldn't see, but he always smokes me on his bike (I just have a little 600:p ).

Rice Hunter 05-29-2002 09:14 AM

Oh yeah, and for crewzin, I scraped the peg on my old Shadow taking a winding turn at 80:D . Looked bad after that, had to replace it. Haha, that's when I decided I needed a sport bike instead:p .

moc 05-30-2002 09:26 PM

Yea Man
 
crewzin , I'am with ya brother !. You make me think about this park outside the city limits of Las vegas ( can't think of the name of it) what a cool place for some peg scraping, it's one way in and one way out ( 18 miles long) of some of the best turns I can remember , it had like , 12 wicked left handers, and 10 rights. It was a mecca for sport bikes back in the day ( It's been awhile) but this place was so crazy ,that on weekends they would station a flight for life chopper near by !! ( for your typical rich kid ,that just rolled in with a bran new 1100 with 15 miles on it ) no kidding.. ! If anybody can recall the name of the park I would really like to no .. just had to tell you that !
;) :D

I have the 160 vid of it though... Click here!!

Hey! That's exactly what I saw when running from the NJ State Ghestapo on route 295 last year. Same speedometer, same indicated speed. :D :D

You gotta admit, the ZX-6R is GREAT for wind protection at high speeds. The 929 damned near beats me to death.

For those who wanna flame me for going that fast, I don't normally ride that fast, but I REALLY could not afford a ticket that day.

I actually did that run for this website:
http://www.fortunecity.com/silverstone/studebaker/396/
wound up placing 3rd in my horsepower range, but I haven't been there for a while, and I'm sure I've been pushed down the list. It's a really cool site, and the webmaster, Magnus, is a cool guy too.

Pretty cool site. Course......most of those speeds are BULLSHIT without the "yellow box" to correct the factory 3-8% high set speedometers that Japanese bikes come set at. :D

Nevertheless, a cool site.
