That's what I'm saying - has anyone hit 95+ indicated on a GPS? When I had my 250 with FMF Q4 system, rejet, etc it was about 75ish to low 80's tops on a flat road. Maybe mine's screwed up or something, but 95+ just seems high.

I got a 15t sprocket on it's way, I'll see what the 351 can do

Just over 80mph for me, Could have gotten a bit more but the bike is unstable at that speed. Especially with turbulence from other cars on the highway. I'll save the crazy stuff for you young ones.

I'm not saying you're lying, I'm saying that you weren't doing 94 even though the speedo said it.. You were probably doing about 80-83. Strap a GPS on, you'll be amazed at the difference
