[QUOTE="Aaron Yarbough, post: 671007, member: 64114"] Yes, the Hayabusa was the worlds fastest produciton bike when it was first released back in '99. I don't recall it's actual top speed but it was just shy of 200MPH (~196MPH) and that's stock. Since then, it has been governed to 186MPH. The average sport bike (Crotch Rocket) comes from the factory with about 8-9% of speedo error. I can also explain the excessive speedo error on this bike. More than likely he has changed the front sprocket to a smaller sprocket, probably dropped down 1 tooth, which gives it a lower gear ratio. The speedo reads from the output shaft which is where the front sprocket is mounted. I would say that he was actually going about 160 MPH. I ride a 2005 Honda CBR1000RR (see my library) and i'm familiar with all of the sport bikes. My bike has a top speed of about 192MPH. And yes, i've done all of it..... [/QUOTE]
