    200 Miles per hour?




    Maybe in the back of a C130...

    The bike has a factory speed limiter @ 186 mph

    Douchebag...

    the highside in the parking lot was priceless, though...

    Just so you know, you can take the governor's off. The end was priceless as you say though.

    Yeah, a TRE will convince the ECU that the bike's in 5th gear, so no speed limiter, or you can do it in software internally in the ECU. Doesn't alter the fact that this particular bike is about 50 horsepower shy of what it would take just to overcome the aerodynamic drag at 200. Or that he's a tool.
