thats indicated, bike speedos are known for being off good 10-15%

could figure i was doing 175-180 legit

I know about indicated vs. reality on a motorcycle, they seem pretty bad. I've never been on a track so I've never had the stones to go that fast. I think 120 on surface streets is the fastest. Futhermore, my bike is a naked and probably won't do more than 150 indicated due to poor wind management inherent in naked bikes. I would love to take an S1000RR or Panigale 1199 out and run it around a bit.

I had a zrx1100 with the muzzy cams, and headlight mod (removed lil fairing they had on there. it will get up there and be stable ;)

I recommend track days for all sport bike riders. so much to learn, plus will make everyone a more aware street bike rider.

if you have a track near you (with in days travel) do one!! and thank me later ;)

We have a track in the midland region of SC and then there's Barber…maybe Road Atlanta. It's a checkbox item, I just gotta do it.
