Looking at taking part in this event later in the year - I suspect I may not be the only H2 there and would not be surprised to see at least one H2R having a go ................

I might pop along to that and watch you

Might take zx12r to officially join 200mph club. Might take H2 if gentleman's agreement broken. Is the 186 mph limit a law thing?

Read an article in Motorcycle monthly this morning that reckons 209mph according to revs, gears.

The 186 mph limit is just down to an 'agreement' between the manufacturers - bottom line is that, a few years back, there was a concern that, if the manufacturers did not control power and speed, the EU would do it for them !

However there does seem to be a strong opinion that the H2 will top 200mph in stock trim .........

Thanks for clarifying. That agreement has stood for 15 years, its about time it was unraveled. I see the French are riding in protest of any pre 2000 yr m/c being aloud in cities this Sunday. I normally support rides involving tampering with our rights. Good on the French for not taking it lying down. Ride safe peeps.

If the 186mph is tied into a production bike agreement I wonder if Kawasaki could argue about the LIMITED production status of the H2.

Maybe Probabaly not, my balls aren't brassy enough

We need to ask H2R about this...he surely must know?

That sounds like a really fun event to attend. I wonder if any records will actually be broken. Definitely possible with the H2R there.

I've been to a Straight Liners gig at Santa Pod,,,,,these men are fully up for it!!!

If I hit 200mph on my 'test straight' here...does it count?Videotaped of course.

Get an approved GPS speedo to "Officially" verify and I personally will post the stickers to you...
