[liam]

Hey fellow two wheeled hooligans, whats been your top speed on your xs? Didya hit the ton? Just askn for shits.

Last summer I was ticketed for supposedly doing 90 but I dont believe it


cheers

Had mine up to 100mph a few times, pretty scary Still had some left but did not want to kill it.

 

[drewpy]

yep 90mph after that it gets hairy!

 

[xs400neophite]

as of yet only 70 mph. I feel very light at that speed and dont like the feeling! May get it up to 80-85 MPH once I get a M2 license and can legally go on the Freeway.

you need to lean forward over the tank, to keep the front from getting light!

 

[dobbie750]

got her up to 75, with 13" apes and sprung seat
not to be recomended

I've been up to 80mph with more on top, but acceleration was very gradual at that point....I don't make a habit of it.

 

[Reaper]

Had mine up to about 20. The clutch is slipping and I'm fat!

wow 20, really? how did it handle at that speed?

 

[xschris]

I think it is time for a bigger bike

 

[liam]

Yeah, I noticed the same. after 80-85 the acceleration is there but really sluggish.

 

[jordan]

mine tops out at around 80, i think. I weigh a good 225lbs, This makes me want to a)lose about 45 lbs
b)shoehorn a cb750 engine into my xs

 

[kindest]

~75 here. I avoid freeways so I don't really need to ever even go that fast. Seeing the pavement move that fast is a scary sight for me.

 

[jordan]

I realized I had a problem when I bought an SV650 and suddenly 125mph wasnt fast enough. It's a sickness. The only cure is an R1.

After knocking up 172 on my old Gixer 750 srad, I'm yet to see how I fair without high speeds on the 250 which is now my sole bike that I own lol
