    Nope, that is an actual Miles Per Hour reading, but the tires may not have been on the ground when it was taken.

    Easily accomplished with the venerable F6 turning only 17,000 rpm!

    Flashing your bike with the garage door open can get you arrested!

    Only 330 MPH !? My black one will do that at 10000 RPM in 3rd gear ! I chickened out at that point and rolled off the throttle. The trick was to reroute the air intake to the front of the bike there by creating a vacuum in front of the bike along with the exhaust at that RPM creating a jet effect from the rear.
    I'll continue testing when I fortify my courage.It will be ok,this is legal in Colorado....

    The one reading that is missing is the altitude. I am guessing somebody was in an airplane with their F6B.

    The red paint even winds up on wax applicators and polishing rags faster than the black.
