    Thought it would be interesting to see what top speed people have indicated confirmed by speedo or gps device like HM dash. I haven't actually tried a proper top end blast yet but 176mph so far isnt too bad. Obviously this isn't on public roads guys :)

    Most I've seen was with luggage and was around 155 passing a mate on a private road in the middle of Spain ;)

    As for GPS reading or pics then I was not about to get my camera out at that time

    I've seen 190 on the speedo. Not sure what that would be actual mph though

    I'll check our Blade when it comes back from Almeria or Jerez, or wherever it is now :)

    With the temp gauge you will notice with a stock dash that when you power it on the temp gauge goes all the way to the end and back again and its actually sending a signal when it does this so that is recorded by the logger.

    Ike you Nav, set to GPS speed not conventional speedo.

    This was of course on a test track day

    The bike didn't feel absolutely maxed out, as the RPM in 6th suggests.
