Fastest speed on a biker? About 90 thrusts a minute maybe, my ex was a biker, she had a ZX6R.
But on a BIKE.... genuine 170mph on my ex ZX7R. (bit of work for power and aero)
Hmm 2 ex's in 1 post, am I living in the past?
People don't live in the past enough now, not like how it was in the good old days.

On a bike, about 170, indicated, on track, but the most exciting was hitting 55 on my Honda C70 while slip-streaming a lorry downhill when I was a student.
Sadly the fun was short-lived as this was too much for the motor which blew its head gasket in defiance!
I've never ridden a biker . . .

Oh alright then if we're showing off............
I've got a Certificate of Speed from Bonneville - 138.9**mph average, though I was riding a Buell S1W.
Of course, I've been much slower (and a wee bit faster) too!
That's very cool! I've got a Certificate of Speed from Bonneville - 138.9**mph average, though I was riding a Buell S1W.

I did an top speed run at Bruntingthorpe on my Hayabusa. At an indicated 205mph, the bike tripped the timing lights at an actual 189mph. Made stopping at the end quite interesting though!

Thanks Matt. Fantastic experience and a hallowed place I need to return to. I have a V8 bike I keep dreaming about taking to Bonneville just for fun. Matt
Car engined bikes can't run for records but the Utah Salt Flats Racing Association run a '130MPH Club' and '150MPH Club' pretty much the same way we have 'Run What Ya Brung', and you can run anything in those 'for fun' only classes. Would be nice to show those Septics the Richard Noble spirit is alive and well, lol.
I've thrashed a couple of Busa's too. Had great fun riding one around Colorado and the Rockies
