not it is not, if you redline 6th you will be way past 155mph
ap2's bounce between 155-156 on the revlimiter 6th gear. ap1's have a taller gear and an extra 1000 rpms

I think anyone exceeding 120 and looking at the speedo is an idiot...
Eyes on the road or you'll end up like that guy with his head stuck in the back of the big rig.

186/mph On a 06' R1 but like another guy said i dont trust speedo's LOL
though it was somthing insane. it was also really late at night and no one else around.

I had a 06 m5 up to 175/mph but that didnt feel nearly as fast as it does when the wind is trying to kill you like on a bike. that car pulls just as nasty in 5th gear as it does in 3rd lol. 500hp tank ftw , think it wasted 10 gallons of gas doing it though.
could have got it going faster but i accidently shifted into 7th and it stopped climbing... iv heard it can do 207mph but that would take forever.

My 1994 Camaro Z28 iv pin'd a few hundred times lol the speedo goes to 150 and thats at about 4,500 RPM's and iv had it to 5.5k in 4th. think we did that math with the gear ratios along time ago and figured it should be around 173mph.

I'v had my S to about 150/mph somthing, not really a freeway speed demon lol, had to try reallllllly hard to get it to do that.

If i ever go that fast on my bike again i would like to have a gps running to give a more accurate speed reading. someone told me for like every xxx amount of miles per hour on a bike its off by like 3-6 mph. not sure how true that is.

170 on a kawi 9R. Although I wouldn't trust the speedo. Probably more around an actual 160.

177 mph on a 2005 R1, about 170 on a 2007 CBR1000RR, around 150 on a 2001 Ducati 996, and about 110 on a 2007 Harley Deuce!

Got my klx250s up to 84.9 mph a couple of days ago. It was on a downhill with a tailwind though. I think I can get it over 90 with a small windshield (on order).
