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

[harrycpr]

perhaps we should arrange a TMBF outting sometime next year?

 

i will be up for it when i get a faster bike......did the ring in my bmw and blew the turbo up on the first lap

 

where u running 20 psi of boost or sumin

i know a mate who bought a cozzie rs for £3k and the guy turned the boost to 20psi for the test run then he drove it down to brighton and it blew up 2hours after taking getting the car we just laughed

lol

I love hearing about people who just up the boost with no apparant consideration

So, what happened Phil? to much redlining and not enough oil?

. I think that straight line speed is very over rated , The hype that surounds it is mostly generated by members of the press . the real thrills are to be found when cornering . Here the outright speed around your favorite corner or roundabout is irelivent . Its more to do with the feeling you get entering and exiting . the trouble with speed /high speed is its an evil that needs and demands respect . i think of it like abusing alcohol , binge on speed and you will be sick . lol . The reality of top speed ive found is it pumps adrenilin up too 100ish then doesnt feel that gr8 untill ,170 +. 190 . At this speed it get harder to take the information into your brain of what your seeing ahead and a sort of tunneling effect starts to form at 195mph or 200mph plus is just insane due to the fact things around you start to look like a wheel spinning that fast that it looks like its solid rim not spokes . hedges and houses blend into green lines with dots on . and the road looks as if its moving left and right ahead of you like a huge gray ribbon blowing in the wind . for the math heads on the site do the maths on this . 200mph how long will it take you to travel 300 yards . the amount of notice your given for a turn off on a motorway ?????not that ive ever used an open road to do this sort of speed you understand .

I know that a train going 140mph can go 1 mile in 25 seconds.

Yeah i understand what your saying

I cant do the whole cornering knee to the floor thing:(

I'm new to biking, well, a year and a bit, but only 1 month on a bigger bike.

At the minute i only slightly lean over haha, get the fear of the bike falling on its side and ruining my nice scratch free fearing:P

My mate goes round corners on his SRAD gsxr scraping his knees on the floor, sparks come off and everything haha, wheels literally on the side. but me, i pritty much turn haha.

I'd love to be taught how to do that. so cool!

p.s. came back from swimming an hour ago, LOOOOOOONG open road, straight for 3-4mile, tucked my head under the screen and opened up what a GREAT feeling.

Hit 142 before i slowed down =p

going round nice curvey turns in the road over 120/130 feels so great

Is his a turbo version as well!??

419kmh is about 250mph if my schooling wasn't totally wasted!

I'd be surprised if that bike was going that fast on the vid! But, I've been surprised before!

[Platty5791]

seems to mate! he hits max on speedo, and still speeds up on rev counter o.O

and yeah my mate has the turbo version

[cossie916]

Fookin hell!

Get some pics up!

52 MPH on my moped

130 MPH on my dads triumph sprint ST 1050

that was fun

[Guest]

ive worked it out , tho im not sure its correct but here goes . when traveling at 200mph on a motorway and you see a your turn off is ahead . you see the turn off ahead and when you pass the first countdown marker 300 yds ......... you will have 0;3.263 of a sec to shut off and hit the brakes or youve gone right passed . lol . hows that for insane !!!!!!

Hit 70 today whilst training on a CG. Fastest i've been before.

Quite different to the smooth ride I get out of my scooter, goes fast up to 55mph, then crawls on. Flashing images of an accident happening were in my mind, but I quashed them soon enough.

Driving I'v only done like 20.. I haven't even done my cbt yet lol

But I remember a year or 2 ago when I went to visit relatives in Italy and my moms moms brothers son took me for a ride on his BMW something and was going about 100

I was shit scared lol first time on the back of a bike and I was like 13..

Nearly 80 mph ... on my 125, with my chest flat against the tank, the needle on the redline and the speedo just *inching* towards the top of the dial (80 mph), with me saying "come on! come on! come on!"

[Ratser]

Ok, topped my highest yesterday by doing 95mph.
