Post by DD »

Now I have'nt found a longer enough streach of road were the law dos'ent partrol to find out what the VTR will do. I have seen 240-250kph but did'ent take notice of the rev's
My CX500turbo did 230kph, my MG 1100i sport did 240kph and my 97 VFR 750 did 260kph what would the Storm do balls out?

Best I've heard is around 155 mph (actual) on top..

i've had an "Indicated" 168mph, not sure what it actually was, but a freind on his 916 was behind me, and he reckoned his duke was reading 165mph.....

Sure felt fast though.......

The max i've done is 280kph but it took a long time between 260 and 280, may be 4 or 5 km (arround 1minute or a little less). but i'm not sure i'll manage to do it again. :?
