I know I wasnt going this fast due to the speedo bieng off, but when I was at stock sprockets mine, and 2 of my other friends who have k6 600's, was reading 186 mph!! Maybe you had another gear or werent at full throttle!! :headscrat 160-165 mph . . . it should read alot higher, not sayin your goin that fast but yeah . . :hmmm:

150ish sounds about right.. my K4 600, maxed out, read 186 on the speedo, but was only doing 169.6 mph in reality (per gps)...

The most disturbing part to me is that you did this at night, when your visibility is the most limited. I don't care how well lit up the road is, you still can't see if something is in your path at that speed at night.

I don't care how well lit up the road is, you still can't see if something is in your path at that speed at night. One thing they taught in the MSF course. Don't ride faster then your vision. Meaning if something were in front of you, you need time to at least slow down to navigate the obstacle. At that speed and at night, you'd plow through anything that "popped" up in front of you. Were you at least on the highway or something?

I could understand if you want the 1k for a little more torque around the street, but just to go 180 mph is dumb, 150 mph is PLENTY fast.

150 mph is about 220 feet per second. Your headlights, no matter how many high beams were on will not have anything lit up enough.

Dumb, maybe. We've all done dumb stuff. As long as you learn from it and don't do it again you're not stupid though.
