Can imagine some did better in best conditions : weather, road or cleaned or added accessories, chiptuned.... .  What about you !?    :scooter:
And could you try it , on a lonely road, or on what circuit eg... ?   :biker3:

Ps i once read that a gtr/concoursbiker could reach ... 335kms/hour  :grin: making bike lighter and tuned the bike for races....

I've done 150mph/240kph on the German autobahn, but that was fully loaded on the way back after 2 weeks away.  :evil:

Looks fake to me. I don't live that far away from Germany so once I've run in my GTR (delivery coming week), I may be able to try and let you know.

Did 248 km/h (GPS speed) on my current Z1000SX in Germany already. Had to slow down because of other traffic ;-)

I thought I read somewhere the GTR was factory limited to 150mph???
I came, I saw, I rode off....

I read somewhere 258 km/h, which is 160 mph.

either way.... I wouldn't get anywhere near that - not even on an A Bahn

The Mk1 wasn't restricted as far as I know, but the Mk2 is restricted to 155.  That video looks as though the bike was on a rolling road.  No way do they accelerate that fast!

:agree:

You'd expect to see a change in the reflections of the speedo and rev-counter dials. That (to me) looks like the roof of a small industrial unit or workshop.

O.C.

Yep, speedometer climbing faster than the rev counter, looks fishy to me  :whistling:

:mfr_lol: I have an image of the bike coming off said centre stand in the garage, creating a second garage door  :oops:

Yup, the ignition switch didn't even twitch so done on a dyno.
I've seen 160mph on mine with the oem screen and panniers.
There is a little left in 5th so I reckon 170 would be V-max without changing the gearing/rev limiter.
Soon as ya shift to 6th it drops to about 150.
You can get to 140 pretty quickly but after that the acceleration tapers off rapidly.
