I have a GPS mounted on the Busa with ram mounts, and I have seen a GPS-verified 170mph in 5th gear at redline.

Unfortunately, the crosswind got to the point that I wasn't able to get into 6th and see how much further I could take it safely. She was pulling very strong through 5th, so I am curious how much more is there.

This test was completed at a top secret high desert testing facility, etc. etc. :lol:

Yea so much for the "gentleman's agreement" of 186.. My 2000 'Busa did just under 200 with a pipe,power commander and air filter. Besides,a lot of that depends on gearing,take one tooth off the rear sprocket of any of those bikes and voila'...

that wouldn't do them any good in the 1/4 though. -1 on the front helps through the 1/4 though.

I thought we were talking top end here.... BTW I disagree sometimes you can lower your quarter times by moving some of the off the line spin to a higher top speed in a lower gear.
