Fastest You've Been On A Bike (pillion & passenger)

[DG]

130 2 up loaded with luggage

160 on my Jack showing an M3 the way to go

Hopefully G.o.G won't read this and shout at me

I've got to just over 155mph indicated on 04 R6, and I've had 145mph indicated on my current ninja - both on track.

Car wise, I've had a GPS speed of 203mph in my fairlady along Döttinger-Höhe straight in Nurburgring (the LOOOONG bit just before the exit gates)

If you're interested, time from start gate to bridge was a crappy 9:23

Jeremy Clarkson did it in 10 minutes using a crappy diesel!!

What car did you use to get 203mph??

[Guest]

104 on the back of dads RSV 1000. Loved it until front end popped up a bit. Gave the ticker a good jolt

190mh on zx12r a1.akro k&n powercomander still pulling but ran out of bottle

Yeah.. I know... one day I'll get arounnd without coming off

 

What car did you use to get 203mph??

 

1991 Nissan 300zx Z32 Fairlady Twin turbo, running: Blitz K26 tubs at just under 2 bar, Jun high-lift cams, Jun 890 injectors, Trust 89 pistons, Nismo fuel pump, Nismo metal gaskets, Nismo valve kit and springs, HKS intercooler and oil cooler, HKS boost controller, plus lots of other little bits and bobs.

Best car I've ever driven.. worst car I've ever owned.

(still want another tho )

I've seen 180mph on the speedo whilst riding two bikes:

Highly tuned TL1000R and a stock Hayabusa I was test riding.

(on an Autobahn obviously!)

[Guest]

100 on one wheel 1/4 mile at santapod

136 on both wheels 1/4 mile at santapod

140 over a mile on one wheel airstrip

187 b4 i run out of private road

[Guest]

iv done in region of 196 mph coming back from oxford towards london!

it was my mates zx12r on a 2004 which was dyno tested on regular having 186 bhp and 183 bhp with 2 seperate graphs.

to be honest it didnt feel nothing special. and the bike still looks ugly dont care wat anyone says! same goes for the hybusa!

[Platty5791]

o my god, i thought my 140 before bottlin it was good >.<" haha

[Guest]

fastest would've been after my cbt the instructor gave me a lift into town. don't know the exact speed, but was over 70, less than 100. was first time pillion and was pretty cool to be a a bike with more power right after a day on a CG! think it was a er-5? it was his winter bike

my ybr only does up to 70 downhill

[Guest]

115 the other day on my Fazer... nice quiet motorway on the way to work (which was suprising!).

The bike wanted to go faster, but I didn't!

Hell of a thrill... although I do need a bigger screen for comfort!

I take it you didn't brake in time for the 50kmh limit then!

Likewise, I have broken that speed limit a few times, an indicated 170mph on my 916 and 160mph in the Cossie.

Looking forward to seeing what results the 1098s and the new Cossie engine can achieve!

My best laps are 8:39 in the Cossie and a P**s Poor 11:20 on the 916.

(Its a lot bloody scarier on a bike!)

Hopefully I can improve both on my next visits!

[wiffers]

Been on back of mates GSX-R 750 at 130MPH - still pulling away nicely, but fcuk me was I holding him tight

Fastest I've driven was 75MPH last week during CBT

[nman1]

Guy on Golden Balls had done 176 on his R1, but of course this was on a track......honest officer At that speed, me personally, would crap myselfe

[wiffers]

Incidentally, I felt safer on the back of bike at 130MPH than I did in an M3 at 150MPH (same road, but in M3 it was raining)

Guy who rides bike has redlined his GSX-R 750 (chipped), a fireblade, A GSX-R 1000 and gone over 200 on a hayabusa (spelling) - crazy crazy rider ...

There's a speed limit?

hehe.. yes.. and every time, without failure, I've been bollocked for doing so

I can understand why tho, because you really need to get on the brakes quite hard after that sign.. lol

11:20 is a tad on the slow-side.... trafic issues or "grip" issues?

8:39 is much more respectable

I'm definately wanting to try the bike route, but I really doubt I'll get anywhere faster than 10 minutes... I think I'd crap myself

One question tho... on the carousel... that's some seriously bumpy surface. On bikes is it best to aim for the flat stuff at the top and cruise the corner - or is the carousel "safe" enough?

[cossie916]

I did the flat bit everytime on the bike, but that was the first time I'd been and only did about 10 laps.

I've done loads in the car now and went round the carousel everytime, so I may even dare to go around it on the bike next time (doing a slow speed bump test run first! ). I bet the front wheel lifts a lot coming out of it though!!

I didn't get in to trouble for speeding along the straight bit but did get a lot of funny looks! I started to obey the limit in the end, I'll save the top end runs for the Autobahn on the way there next time! (If its quiet enough! )

[Sk93]

perhaps we should arrange a TMBF outting sometime next year?

[cossie916]

Sounds good to me!

Not got much cash left after getting my 1098s though . I'll have to sweet talk her indoors!

[TomW]

had 155mph on the kwak yesterday had more in her too but i chickened out!! was a mega rush!!

I am surprised to see ( reading the posts above ) how many people are interested in this thread . so ill ask a few questions . How fast would you like to go ?? . would you go on the back of randy mamola on the 2 seater duc , say around donnington park given the chance . . . . ive asked most of my local riding friends this and most say . No Way !

Ah, might aswel, you only live once. What I find intersting about Randy Mamola, is that he started racing when he was 20, won his first race when he was 21, unlike "child prodigies" who start at the age of 6.

Good questions mate....

Would have to be a safe place... Closed road, track, test road, and a bike setup by experts, but would like to hit 150mph....

Would never go on the back of a bike with anyone though..... Im a control freak. Can't help myself.
