umm-assuming u mean trap speed in the 1/4, who gives a shit if you went 150? if im on a busa, according to this, im still crossing the finish line a tenth or so before you, aka winning.

but this doesnt matter, besides the fact that this was '08, no1 races their bike 100% stock, and top speed is a moot point, they're all within a few mph of each other, gentlemans agreement or not.

Yea so much for the "gentleman's agreement" of 186.. My 2000 'Busa did just under 200 with a pipe,power commander and air filter. Besides,a lot of that depends on gearing,take one tooth off the rear sprocket of any of those bikes and voila'...

that wouldn't do them any good in the 1/4 though. -1 on the front helps through the 1/4 though.

I thought we were talking top end here.... BTW I disagree sometimes you can lower your quarter times by moving some of the off the line spin to a higher top speed in a lower gear.
