    The last number on the speedo is 180. He is doing 160-170 there

    If you pause the vid at 2:13 you can see the odo at 111KM and the speedo max at 180

    Its marked 180 at the end, but another notch would be 190 where the indicator ends....

    Faster than mine!
    Hardly scientific but his speedo shows 60 - 140 kph in 7.2 seconds, 60- 160 kph in 11.0 seconds.
    Mine hows 60 - 140 kph in 9.4 seconds, 60- 160 kph in 15.0 - rubbish.
    Still, his wasn't 25 years / many kilometers old, and serviced by an idiot.
    Either he was running a smaller front tyre, constantly going downhill, or mine needs a health-check, and probably the std exhaust back on!
    Surprised they dropped the forks as ground clearance already a problem and it hardly steers slowly, but I can't really argue with them - they were actually riding bikes, whilst I'm just sitting at work talking about it!
