Re: gearing
sammy actuall the 05 gsxr 600 will do exactly the 187 that it tops out at stock i kno for a fact.
one of my buddies is a cop and we clockd him doin that.
or maybe it was the red/black paint that gave it 200 more hp to do that?..

Re: gearing
exactly. most people dont realize how much the gearing can screw the speedo over. all it does is read the rpms from the output shaft of the transmission and calculate that into a speed. if you go from a 45 tooth to a 60 tooth in the back, you are going to be reading the same speed at a set rpm, but in reality, you will be going 25% or 33%(im not sure which) slower than the reading you are getting.

Re: gearing
yeah...sorry about the thread jack. but seriously, if you want a bike that will have a top end, get a real 600cc sportbike(inline 4, not a v-twin), and dont excessively gear it. I would say you could easily add 5 teeth and still outrun that sv with no problem. if you went up 10, you should start to be close to being at the same speed as the sv. anything after that and i think you would be fast as all hell accelerating, but you wont be getting any huge top speeds
