Poor bug! huhu :) 5:08

Anyway very nice, the engine sound is clear and also the vid..

Bravo.. but i guess that gixxer even 750's can go up to 299++km/h topspeed is it?

Seems like ur engine is over rem to me.. or am i wrong?

@Mavrixone

Top speed might be around 280km/h in perfect conditions, appropriate gearing and a light weight rider on board :D

It's not over revving it's just hitting the limiter, peak power is around 13 500rpm (133rwhp 1K intake cam & 750 IN/EX Ape sprockets, Micron Serpent header and PC3 custom map)

Easy to see how lean angle (even somewhat moderate) affects on the speedo reading.

@GOBbluthagain

Yes, it's pretty good, I thought it would go only something like 240 km/h, because I had a big backbag, a tank pack and a tail pack :)

And yes, -1/+2 is the best allround gearing, mine is geared for the trackdays. I tried to fit 43 rear but the chain is too long :(

[GOBbluthagain]

thats still nearly 160mph ... impressive top speed considering the crazy sprocket/gearing.

i think -1 and +2 is good compromise accel and top speed.
