Oh dear, this will be good. waiting for the 320kph claims to come. Once those kind of speeds are reached the speedos are generally waaaaay out so an indicated speed is usually a long way off actual speed. But anyway 270kph and still getting faster two up (indicated). Its not something I really recommend though.

even 120kph or so gives a decent rush.

YEP, when something goes wrong its a hell of a rush.

You must have a decent set of stones to get a bike up to 270kph. I'd be packing myself

Decent set of stupidity really. BUT in saying that if you choose the place time weather traffis flow etc its not that bad.And of course suitable bike.Still even though it wasn't that long ago in the scheme of things its not something I search out these days. But ya gotta try at least once in a life time LOL.

I wonder what the fastest speed ever achieved on a motorbike is! Not one of those turbo rocket cars on two wheels but an actual motorbike

GP bikes can do 340kph quite happly on the track so you have to wonder how fast they would get geared for top speed and a loooong straight.

Only the once just to see what it would do at about 3am. That was about 5 years ago - I wouldn't do it now - too old and frail. not sure I could hang on so well.

220kph onHonda boldour, it wanted to go faster, but that was enough for me (o: Only got small ones (o:

Absolutely. I was the only vehicle on the road, except the truck-trailer combo in the left lane that I passed at near top speed.
Some people die without ever having even lived, so scared to do anything. Bungy jumping and parachuting don't even interest me - that's for people who get scared thinking it's dangerous just because height is involved.

A CBX750F2 Rollerdoor or a 1000! Wouldn't have had much more in it either way. My mates GS1000ST was good for about 240km/h indicated but that was at least 10% optimistic.

Hahaha whatever you say. But I don't buy into that pigeon hole psychologist mumbo jumbo. People have to live their own lives how they want. If they want to do it standing on the sidelines watching everyone else live, until they croak with cancer, so be it.
