What's the fastest you've gone in the Crotch Rocket? I'd love to take the Jag faster, I just haven't found the opportunity or place!

196mph on my heavily modded 02 R1. The 06 Gixxer 750 is only good for about 172mph.
Your probably asking your self where I could do such a great speed? Well I know a road that has fresh smooth pavement with nothing but Orange Groves on both sides for about 5 miles. Let me tell you though, 5 miles goes by pretty quick at those speeds. LOL

RE: Top speed
Goldwings are awesome! Underneath they are a crotchrocket but with all of the extras the things are awesome! I tried to find a video we talked about on our cbrforum but I couldn't find it...it was seriously one of the sweetest things I've ever seen. This guy looks like santa clause and he's riding down in tennessee and the carolinas through the twisties on a goldwing and the big recording him is riding behind him and his boxes touch the ground whether he goes to the right or left! It was awesome, if only all could have seen!

RE: Top speed
is this speed limter a US thing? What a bummer to spend all that money on a car and then not be able to use it. My 2.0 petrol has done a true 140+ (as my sat nav screen on my pocket pc switched to safe mode & this was set for 140) Oh & as we are talking bikes (my real passion) indicated160 the other week on my GSXR, not bad for a 8 year old bike with 54000 miles, but still does not accelerate as fast as my 20+ year old Suzuki RG500
