had to slow down.... my g/f was gettting unimpressed



i've got akool pic of me doing around 120km/h.... i'll scan it and throw it up soon....
Ok what is up with this?? 190 Km/h?? THats not even 120 mph. And the cool picture of 120 km/h?? THats about 70 mph. What is the speed limit over there in australia? My vert likes to cruise at about 120. Havent really had enough road to do much more.

No no no noooooo....the 190km is equal to about 120MPH...look at the pic that ILUV put up...look at the KM marks, find 190 and you'll see its a little below 120MPH...so he was going pretty fast...

I've heard of a TII running what "seemed" to be 210-215 mph. It was revving at 9K+ in 5th.
