My top speed somehow keeps going up everyday. I attribute it to the new sticker I put on either myself or the bike before I ride. I hit 274 Im pretty sure 280 will be broken as soon as my 4x8 loud pipes save lives sticker goes on in the morning.

anywhere near 300 mph I don't consider it prudent to glance at the speedo, but I'm positive my 0-60 is actually faster than time now that I've learned to get the power down effectively. I give all credit to the machine, I'm not a professional or even very experienced. I'm sure many on this forum are much faster, particularly if they ride one of the faster colors.

L8RGAYZ- I know you're old and all, but you haven't seen the latest fad? Smashing the tank down so you can sit on it and do wheelies. Plus the weight reduction alone because of the smaller fuel capacity increases handling and speed. If the dent is on the side then its because it was his first time with a hammer and he missed the top of the tank. The fairings are scratched cause he bumped up against a concrete pillar in a parking garage. (I really did get that one)

Funny ****. Any bone stock VTR will go 0-60 in 3.5 sec. A VTR tuned up to 112-115 rwhp with a skilled (and skinny) guy in the seat will go 10.46 through the quarter.
235 mph? That would require well over 200 rwhp. Probably 250.

That kind of HP would require some serious mods to the bike. Besides he was prob. looking at KPH not MPH...
