I tried a different view to show how fast Road America is....stock bike, stock tires...

Enjoy!

160+ MPH... That is freakin sweet! I wanted to ride that track so bad the entire time I was there, next year... we'll see. Thanks for the video!

How did you get it to show what gear you were in?

It's the 09 cluster.

Thanks a lot. I'm always wandering if I'm using the correct shift points. Some of the non-1125 riders tell me to shift early cause it won't help to rev past 9K. But once racing I always forget that plan and go to 10.5 or the rev limiter.

It sure does. Sometimes when I am concentrating really hard on traffic or other riders at the track, I find the powerband is so consistent that I run in the rev limiter. It seems like it wants to pull forever. Cutting off all that power so quickly can be a little startling for sure.

You understand. There are sections on our track where if I have enough exit speed I can make it to the next break point just as the rev limiter hits. Sometimes it's handy!

I'm up against the rev limiter at my track all the time. Sometimes I get a really good drive out of a corner and I'm reminded I'm almost fast enough to start taking that section in the next gear up as my bike sounds like it's being operated by a squid at sonic on a thursday night!
