The thing is I know who this kid is. He used to work with me before he was fired. But anyway there is no way his bike could do anywhere near 200 mph. So I am going to say the highly technical measurement of stop watch and counting whites lines may be off just a tad bit on this one. The kid rode a Rc51 which is a v twin 1000 nothing like the CBR1000 which is the inline 4 which btw would still not even come close to 200mph without major modifications. They are pretty comparable to a 600 on top end maybe a little quicker. And this kids bike was not really modified either just slip on mufflers.

I guess, whatever bike he was on, had a max speed of 179 mph(according to the manufacturer).That and the publicity this incident is getting, coupled with how inaccurate VASCAR is at high speed, will make for an interesting court battle.

Well I would have tried to go for the record the other day - but I came up on my exit to quick. And I wasn't about to keep going based on what was going on at that time. But I'll just say my GSX can at least go as High as I've had my GS-T.
For those that have known me for a while know how fast I've had my GS-T upto.

Since I dont know you, I'm gonna have to ask. How high was that?
Is it possible for a non-turbo Plymouth Laser RS to reach a top speed of 156 stock? There was this kid who used to go to my school who said he got his car up to 156...I didnt believe him at all.
