    I've seen 235km/h in my RX7
    just over 200km/h in my Exa
    And just over 240km/h in my mates VL Turbo- that was an experience, certainly not in a place that I would have chosen to open it up!
    (I've got a spreadsheet that uses wheel/tyre size, diff gearing, gearbox ratios and rpm, and according to that these speeds are accurate- cos I know the speedos on my cars aren't!)

    I've 'only' done 180km/h on my GPZ 750 turbo. Only time I've ridden it! Things feel a lot quicker on the bike!

    Oh and all on private test tracks.....nudge nudge wink wink
