Whats the fastest youve been on a bike?

[stephen4785]

Iv been 143 so far. Cant find a long straight road with no cars to go any faster.

[evil jose]

Iv been 143 so far. Cant find a long straight road with no cars to go any faster.

I got up around 130-140 going across a bridge on Joe Pool Lake. JC and Adam were going faster though as I let off. Fuck dat!

[Dim Mak]

I've pedaled up to 12 mph once.

[Monsoon X]

I've never been over 100

[ThreeFingerPete]

I think i've been about 70mph.

[staticX]

170

[Manny5]

140mph, sounds fun..

damnit i want a bike

[Monsoon X]

140mph, sounds fun..

You can buy mine for Tree-Fiddy! :D

[Manny5]

lol...tree-fiddy...haha i wish it were like that

[hustleman]

150.. South 360 gives you a long stretch near Mansfield to get up to speed. Low traffic too.

[CatDaddy]

130, that was fast enough for me on two wheels :D

[2165 Turbo Rail]

got to 153 and the bike wouldn't go any faster.....
NOW.... how many of YOU were running from "someone" :eek:

[PhatdowninTx]

I have been 47 MPH on a Mt.Bike back when i used to race them... That was real fun.

[JKDGabe]

55

[Dim Mak]

I haven't been over 85, but then again I have a cruiser.

[Hurley]

My roommate and I were screwing around on 820 about two months ago and I saw something around 170 passing him on a few highspeed races.

John

[chevyhater01]

65 mph but it was on a KX250 on some paved country roads I was kinda disappointed figured it would go abit higher.

I've also been 45mph on a old school honda 70cc kid bike I was more worried about this one than the dirtbike.

[ishc54]

180 .. straight away at TWS ... scaaaarrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyy....

[NayNay]

173 or somethin on the G1k

[Temple 5.0]

my scooter will hit 30!! 35 going down hill with a 20mph tail wind
haha i did 112 on my bro's bike today! what a rush

[BCNU]

168.. in a 1/4 of a mile.

[spankustang]

Speedo read 181 in sixth gear at 10,500 rpms!! Ran outta room!!! :D

[SC457A]

hmm, my speedo said 135 mph, the motorplex timers said 125.

on the little "speed run" on the Dublin trip, i think i went 120. but im still a newbie so im not going fast yet. gotta walk before you can run ya know. :rolleyes:

[Garceeya]

Shoot I hit 147MPH just in the quarter mile. On the R1 I saw 186MPH on the speedo. On the ZX10 I saw 190MPH and that was dragging some gixxer 1K down the highway.

[f0ur sixer]

38mph on a pocket bike.

[Car-less Chris]

45mph on the mini bike

[evil jose]

hmm, my speedo said 135 mph, the motorplex timers said 125.

on the little "speed run" on the Dublin trip, i think i went 120. but im still a newbie so im not going fast yet. gotta walk before you can run ya know. :rolleyes:

I remember that speed run to and probably didn't go any faster either :D

On the dublin run I saw 140~ Untill I ran up on JC so I had to slow down.

[HiTechRedneck]

130-140 in a long sweeper. That was fun!

[perezsteveo]

Well my speedo said 155 going down S 360 and I got up to 147 to catch up to onebad and Elvis on the way back from Dublin....

[94StangFiveO]

I did 176 on my R6.

[fireballz]

i been 153 or so on a 750

[Monsoon X]

On the dublin run I saw 140~ Untill I ran up on JC so I had to slow down.


hahahaha Yeah, I know. My R1 is slow. :(

[AnotherRedHead]

i been 200 plus on the busa, only takes a few seconds to get there on I-20.....been 5.85 @ 132 in the 1/8th, both of those are gonna get shattered this year at the 9/10ths and kennedale and h town. Hell, Ive been 180 plus for about 7-8 minutes straight down 635 to 20. Me and Chrissy have made it from north dallas, back down to duncanville in under 10....at like 2 in the morning.

[Super Coupe]

160 on the speedo. Was prolly like 150 cause all bikes speedos are fast.

[rlanicek]

105 on my HD Road King.

[88hatch5_0]

I have been 145 on my little 600cc, yeah I know I am a daredevil. Plus I got a big sack!!

[Danny]

Guy I work with has been 220 on this (http://www.dfwstangs.net/forums/showpost.php?p=2492389&postcount=22).


It was estimated that it could go 265.

Nice guy too. Crazier than a shithouse rat...

[01WhiteCobra]

52MPH on my Cannondale.

[JimD]

Without offending anyone....You Fockers are crazy! 180 -200mph. Only thing i will go that fast in Will have wings.

[Monsoon X]

Without offending anyone....You Fockers are crazy! 180 -200mph. Only thing i will go that fast in Will have wings.

I remember saying that.

[Thurston]

ive been up around 140 or so a few times, nothing compared to 200 though. i try to keep it around 80 or so because if you go down at those speeds, its not going to be pretty.

[88LX50]

148 fastest in car. speedo showed 181 on bike so more like 165ish in actual speed im guessing.

[12second5.0]

155 on 35N

[steph-gmh]

Me by myself 161 on Greg's 954... but with Greg 193 is what he said read on the speedo...

[badjimmihat]

speedo said 175, who knows if it was right, on a 97 tl1000 with a few things done to it, on 183 between euless and irving.

[KevinH78]

The speedo on my '01 R1 said 184 but in reality I probably wasn't going that fast.

[stephen4785]

The fsatest Iv ever been is somewhere past 155+. My buddy had a 98 GT with some work. Speedo stoped @155 and the motor was still pulling(
rpm's were still increasing)

[ThreeFingerPete]

right. that would have to be ALOT of work in a 98 gt.

[my dixie wrecked]

168.. in a 1/4 of a mile.
thats not a bad speed what was your time. My best ever was 7.48 @ 173 in the quarter. not bad man what kinda bike etc. details? :D

[AnotherRedHead]

how are you running 7.40 @ only173

[BCNU]

thats not a bad speed what was your time. My best ever was 7.48 @ 173 in the quarter. not bad man what kinda bike etc. details? :D

7.90-8.0's

When I slow it down to T/G (8.20 index) it only runs 163..
Its just a GS1150 Based T/G on Nitrous. 1428cc ,31-26 head, 1-2-3 auto.
22 nitrous jet.
Pretty mild but pretty fun!

i sucked a rag in the carb at about 3/4 track.

[_mach_]

I think i've been about 70mph.

because that's all the R1 will do........should have gotten the 10R and you could go like 170ish.........Adam........u suck

[_mach_]

Rev limiter in 6th......speedo isn't acurate that high........just do the math I'm sure there is a formula out there

[Evile753]

I been around 186 but ran i ran out of room to go any faster....

[OKIEFIDDY]

168 on my 954 that's all she had :mad: but i am a big ol boy :D

[ra96GT]

When I lived out in Cali I could hit the 193-196 range on my little 750cc bike. Well it was a ZX-7RR :)

After doing that a couple of times I realized that having the front wheel "skipping" or "floating" across the pavement wasnt as fun as dragging the peg's through twisties up and down Mt. Palomar. :) I changed out the gear ratio and she would only do about 170 or so afterwards.

[FooFighters203]

for legal reasons.... i have only gone 65mph on the highway. lol :rolleyes:

just messin, ive hit 165-ish... speedo said 178mph so im subtracting some.

[grnh2]

168 on my mille

[dan2600]

172 or something like that... 97 gsxr 750...

I was pissed off at my ex wife and I just didnt give a shit. If I had died, THEN SO BE IT...

Pretty stupid... but I was tired of listening to her open her mouth cause shit would usually come out of it.

[ScottJ]

The shiftlight on my bike comes on at 12k, thats where its set right now. I saw it come on and tried to shift to 7th the other night. Not sure how fast that was in reality but I've never gone that fast before. Its weird, and I'm sure some of you other guys that have gone that fast on a bike before can relate; its like my eyeballs started shaking. I was tucked way in, like from 100 on up, and even then my vision started to shake and bounce around. Luckiley, the highway had reflective dividers. I think thats all that kept me straightened up. I'm not sure what these bikes will do but I didn't have the nerve to even look, other things to keep aware of!

[ScottJ]

i sucked a rag in the carb at about 3/4 track.

Nice setup! Question, with a lowered fast setup like that, do you feel like you can let her pretty much wide open off the light, or do you bring it to like 3/4 and then all in at the shift point or what? Reason I ask is, the gearing on my 04 R1 seems to deal REALLY well with heavy throttle in 1st gear. My 02 was nothing like it, it'd jump at 4k or so RPM, but the 04 seems to feather in the power gradually, and only at the 8-10k mark does it start feeling 'really' light in the front. For that reason, I feel pretty confident when I gas it off the line. Was just curious if a drag bike was 'similar' or if it had its on manurisims (sp?) that required delicate throttle input when you launch.


Thanks!

Thats almost scarry reading it... I do remember the shaking on my bike, but I just kept on the throttle. It happened out on the north side of Fort Worth on 820.

[ScottJ]

Just to clarify, I never felt the bike wiggle any, just my vision. Really weird.

[ThreeFingerPete]

those bikes are a little more gas it and go, because of the wheelie bars.

yeah, the 04 R1's don't want to come up too hard until you get into the power band which is WAY up there.



adam

[BCNU]

I love it when people minimalize what I do.
Climb on a 4 second "bar" bike then come back and talk about it.
You will have a whole new outlook.

No shit. I remeber coming out to Kennedale and watching you and Benji wrestle those bikes to some high 4's, and I do mean wrestle. Looked like a blast though!!

How much does a rolling chassis for a bike like yours run BCNU?

John

[middleagecrisis]

160 (several times) on my 900 Ninja.

[Monsoon X]

Just to clarify, I never felt the bike wiggle any, just my vision. Really weird.

I've experienced that. From what I read in TOTWII it's because we're holding onto the bars too tight, which transfers the shakes from the bike to bodies which gives us "bobble-head". And also it's just because the air at those speeds is crazy harsh.

Its really according to how nice of a bike you want to have.
Me, I am a poor boy. I bought the roller for $2500 and then completely re worked it. I have about $7500/$8000 in the whole bike.
Benji just bought a new chassis for a Busa powered T/G he is building. He will have about $9000 in it(no motor/electronics/nitrous ect)With the complete bike running closer to $15000-16000.

Both will do the deal, both will look nice, but his will just be a far superior bike to mine even if they run the same numbers.

Wagon might think its easy.. I am just saying throw a leg over one before you make your mind up what its about.

[LX331]

162 on the f4i. :cool:

Gonna run an auto in that busa T/G? Whats the motor setup? I like the new lightweight 1430 pistons they got for the busas. stupid light....

[BCNU]

Gonna run an auto in that busa T/G? Whats the motor setup? I like the new lightweight 1430 pistons they got for the busas. stupid light....

He decided on a 1-2 Auto. The way the trans is laid out your choices are 1-2 or 1 through 4. It would take some different controller to run the 1-4 so...

He bought the 1397 block and pistons, 13.5 to one.Really mild motor with an intake cam on the exhaust side, Nitrous, ect. He's running some Mega-Trons.

I wanted him to R&D the stroker stuff in case I wanted to go that way next time..

You know the drill, let him spend the money to find out what works best.
Sorry f#cker, aint I...

If his comes out good and is reliable (I totally expect it to be) Then I might build one next season with a better head and a stroker crank.

Your stock stroke with the turbo right?

[Hurley]

I need to sell my Kawasaki so I can buy my Ghetto kit and 4" over arm and run some mid to high 5's by the end of the summer.

What kind of times do you think Benji can run with that new Busa setup?


JOhn

[ThreeFingerPete]

come on guys, If you know me, then you know good and damn well that i don't believe that riding those things is easy.

but i am saying, is that the bikes are so dialed in, and so well setup, that keeping the front end down is a little easier than a streetbike, that and being an automatic.

as opposed to taking a stock wheelbase streetbike, with stockish gearing and trying to go fast..



trust me, I'm not implying that it's easy, and i can only imagine the feelings that go along with a 5.xx 1/8 mile pass, much less any faster.

<--- Can't ride for shit, and i'll be the first person to admit it.

[BCNU]

What kind of times do you think Benji can run with that new Busa setup?


He better pill it up and run some 4's or I am going to hand him his @$$.

Just kidding. The Busa motor makes a lot of HP on its own and knowing Benji, He wont rest til he's faster than me. That motor combo has a lot of potential.
Plus his bike will be lighter than anything we have run before.

[BCNU]

I might be a bit jumpy on the subject. I have endured a lot of "bar" hatin...

Thing is, most of the time I hear it from people who have never even tried it.

If I lumped you in with those guys, My appologies. ;)

I have said it before, I would be out there on a no-bar ride in a minute, but to be competitive in those classes its just too expensive for me. I am not the kind of person that just wants to ride, I want to compete and I want to win.

J

[ThreeFingerPete]

hey man, i understand.

Maybe i should have put more effort into that first reply, but i what i was trying to imply is that you aren't going to end up dumped on your ass on a "bar" bike, like you will if you get stupid on a short wheelbase bike.

[Hurley]

Awwwww.....

Now give eachother a hug and make nice. :D

JOhn

[BCNU]

Awwwww.....

Hug This... ;)

[AnotherRedHead]

I could build you a busa motor to murder everthing. I can garuntee that you can build a motor motor to beat your bro's nitrous 1397. Im thinking of using some of those 225 gram 1429 pistons and a 5mm crank in a new motor....with stock valve head fully done u could make 250rwhp on motor EASY....just imagine what you could be doing with chassis setup if you didnt have any nitrous to worry about. On the other hand, some 1397s and a 5mm crank and some nitrous....well, 235rwhp motor and 150on top of dat, well, can't beat that.

I thought r&d sold 123s for the busa. doesnt matter, Id run a 1-2 if I had a choice anyways. Fuck, imagine what a 1-2 auto would do on my turbo motor. Oh yea, Im stock bore, stock stroke, stock head. Fixing to be stock bore, stock stroke, turbo head :)

Nick

[AnotherRedHead]

Im gonna go to the fab shop and look at my bike, maybe I can get some pics for you guys. He's all done with the turbo stuff, cept for the wastegate dump....sittin pretty let me tell ya

[Monsoon X]

Stop the madness! That's some crazy power. hahahahaha How long till you're racing again, Nick?

[BCNU]

well, 235rwhp motor and 150on top of dat, well, can't beat that.

Thats what I'm talkin bout!



I thought r&d sold 123s for the busa. doesnt matter, Id run a 1-2 if I had a choice anyways. Fuck, imagine what a 1-2 auto would do on my turbo motor.


They might... We just started getting into these. My thought was to get the 1-2-3-4 and then if I have to kill for 4th... oh well.

Is it against the 60" rules to run the 1-2? It would be nice not to have to unload the chassis early in the run.(not to mention the "Free" e.t.)
Who's doing the Turbo head?

[AnotherRedHead]

i already got the head from a well known guy on the east coast. You cant run any funky tranny's in 60inch or SBS, this is why they all run the stock 6 spd nos cut R&D version. Shit, I cant even make 2nd gear with my stock tranny without getting it cut with the bike making this much power. I was chopping off my 2nd gear dogs last year I know it, Im just waiting on RnD to tell me I need some new gears too. Lets hope they can take it all outta the cut....Its gonna be nice to have a tranny that shifts everytime, never missin, only cost me 900 bucks for some machine work and an output shaft! See JC I didnt even buy any gears! YET! LOL

Nick

[BCNU]

That 1-2 with a billet second and billet output. Seems like he said he bought another billet gear, Maybe third.... I cant remember.
He went with R&D as well... about $1300 worth.

I have one R&D trans and one Gast Trans. They both work great.



I talked to one shootout guy that said they cut their trans for 123 but they still kill the motor on the shift. He said they just did it so the bike would shift no matter what. They were having trouble shifting if the bike was spinning the tire. Made sense.

Did you see what they did to the Texas shootout rules? I guess you can build a 75 inch shootout bike with a 7"slick if your running nitrous. Turbo still has to be 68"

The sixty inch guys are going to run with the "Heavys" Heavys can be longer than 60" But you have to weigh 250lbs.

Better start eatin.

[AnotherRedHead]

Shit, put the #1 plate in 60inch versus the #1 heavy hitter and its garunteed...



Mike slowe would win everytime :)


Im stayin at 60inch. I will run 7.90s mark my words.....

[Monsoon X]

Watching you two talk is like listening to two Japanese folks have a conversation.

HEHEHEEEE

[BCNU]

Im stayin at 60inch....

I would too.

It just sucks that just because Chuck and those guys were doing well, they had to change the rules around. Hell, Larry's outlaw is a legal shootout bike down there now.... I dont get it.

I dont know why they put the heavys with the 60's.

It doesnt matter how they make the rules though, the creme always rises.

I was just wondering if you had seen the changes.



Oh yeah, I hope you do get them 90"s
I'll tell everybody "I knew ya when"...

[Roliath]

You can buy mine for Tree-Fiddy! :D
haha, I aint given you Tree-Fiddy

What ever a CBR 900 RR tops out at.... 170+

[DallasGt01]

182 mph on a cbr 600 f4i 6th gear at rev limiter on bush and 75 going west bound on bush on the bridge

[ScottJ]

182 mph on a cbr 600 f4i 6th gear at rev limiter on bush and 75 going west bound on bush on the bridge

Really, what all do you have done to it? My 04 R1 tops out @ about 185.

[DallasGt01]

not much of a bike guy but it has 1 tooth down on the rear D&D and the guy i bought it from had motor work done it does have cams and oh yeah a little giggle gas but 182 was with no gas

[ScottJ]

1T down in the rear would 'slightly' encourage a higher top speed, I"m sure the interal work is where the top speed on that bike really comes from. I believe stock F4i's peak out around 158 ACTUAL, who knows that the speedo reads. Nearly a 30MPH topspeed increase on a 600 is pretty impressive if that came from cams/motor work, granted, thats kind of a general-blanket statement; I know nothing of what work was done internally on it :)

[10secafair]

151 mph on 1 wheel and 188 mph on I 75 ran out of room!

[AbecX]

I floored my old r1 for a few seconds once going 60mph. I left off as soon as the speedo said 170 which was like 2 blinks of an eye and splattered bug on my visor later.

Didn't you want to get another wizzle? Oppertunity knocks in my sig! :)

[BLOWN5.0]

i went 160 mph from norman to purcell oklahoma and it scared the shit out of
me. i was riding with a friend and so i had to do it. wrecked a couple time around
80 mph a car pulled out in front of me luckly i landed in some soft grass and had
my helmet on. only part that sucked besides my bike hitting a fence is i had on shorts.

[AbecX]

Didn't you want to get another wizzle? Oppertunity knocks in my sig! :)
Sorry, I dont want to spend that much :) I already have one in mind that I'm trying to get right now.
