Fastest I've done is about 160+ off the clock in the vxr on private land of course and it felt safe lol

 

[MikeDX]

My imagination or can you see the fuel gauge drop!

 

[chaz cup 200]

The vxr goes throughout alot of petrol lol

 

[folos]

done 130 in mine with cup spoiler, **** out and didn't want to see if it could do more!

They feel unusually stable at high speed it seems, maybe it's just me coming from bikes. Do the same speed on a bike and it feel like you're going a round with Tyson while dangling from a ladder, in the Clio I'd cruise at that speed all day.

shame it's not got an overdrive :]

 

[chappo]

my ZX6R sits pretty well at 153 mph, lol

I should mention none of my bikes had a fairing

You must still get pummeled though with one surely?

tbh it aint that bad,

when you get tucked up it is pretty good, (even at that speed).

its alot worse on the ER6F as your more upright (touring).

i cant imagine doing that speed on a bike. Surely if the wind gets under your body you'd go from biker, to flyin biker, to splattered on a wall biker.
