I thought so.
BTW, I would not advise anyone to do that unless you are fearless and extremely skilled, it could be dangerous if you are not me.

Sport goes faster than non sport. 6MT goes faster than 5AT because of the gearing. Not sure about the 7AT because none of them seem to have been in the 140+ neighborhood so far or have not reported it. What's the gear ratio for 7th on the '09 AT?

I've been 142 on my previous motorcycle, '06 CBR600RR, and that was scary fun
130, governor limited, in my '06 Civic Si (traded in for G) and that was no big deal, felt smooth and didn't float around. Haven't been over 90 in the G so far, haven't been on a road I felt comfortable with to go that fast. I like having no tickets on my record.....

I've had my needle pinned at 160mph once while in tijuana. I still had some RPM's left too...I'm pretty sure on a Gps it would have been like 155-158ish. I know bikes are off by like 10-15% from factory. I've seen 185MPH on my 07 gixxer but the gps actually said about 160.

Our speedos show off about 1% too fast with factory wheels and tires. 155 on the speedo would be about 153.5 or so.

either way it's fast and always feels like it has a lot more to give.

Took a pic doing 82 on my Honda Turbo'd Jetski. I should get some creds cause I didn't have a windshield in front of me

That would be really cool on a jet ski forum.
Not a big water sports guy. I guess 82 on a jet ski is fast?

Most jet ski's can only do 55-60 max. 82 is pretty fast on those waters. I am surprised you didnt lose your camera.
I thought so.
