At least he won the race.

that was me

[ellik]

could you imagine hitting a pothole at 205mph? ouch!!

how the hell did the state trooper catch him? No way can they get up that fast. They would have to have a road block or something. Plus, if you're bike is modded THAT much, then I'm sure you can outrun the cop. Not saying thats a good idea but $hit...205 is a hefty fine.

That's, uhh, quite fast....But yeah, I wonder what his ticket is gonna cost?

[Nachius]

I'm guessing that may be jailtime!

acculy we worked it out in class one time, clocking from line to line is NOT accuate at all, 1 theth of a second can make a big diff in speed. we did it for like 65 MHP and i think it was somehting like 5 mhp for a 1 then mistake.....

the guy clocking the bikes was in a helicopter. after the bikes slowed down, the guy in the chopper radioed ahead to a patrol car. you can do 205 MPH on a bike, but you can't outrun the radio.

No see.. most people can't do 205 on a bike. The article doesn't even believe he was goign 205 on the bike. If you COULD go 205 on a bike you wouldn't be running from the cops at that speed. Can you say no manuevering? Hello Spike strip?

Several bikes now go over 200 right out of the showroom. A honda 1000 would do it.

[ReodDai]

Never said a bike can't reach 205. I said most people can't go 205, let alone maintain and manuever.

I had gone to a class, because I had lost my license a couple of years ago. There was a guy there, that had a highly moded rx7. I didn't believe him at first but he pictures and his ticket. He was doing 215 mph heading to WI. He lost his license for 5 years and had a $15000 fine.

[ReodDai]

what year rx-7? because without extensive aerodynamic modding the f3d's flip around 160-170mph. Well atleast one did. The record for fd3s is 240mph. The 19986 model went 230 however I'm almost positive it wasn't stock aerodynamics.

He wasn't running from the cops. He was racing another bike.
