Nice wheelie to 140mph and three or four gears. Was that wheelie just off throttle response ? I think some one should remove the pin from the speedo. Let's watch that baby rap around. So what is the estimated top speed. Break out the gps for the next run. Tach was stll creeping 11,000+ !!!
This reminds me of my days prior to boating !!!
Keep the videos coming !

Nucking Futs is right!
I have a 900RR that hits 169mph on a regular basis. It makes me nuts not to see 170 but I never thought to push through the redline. Thats insane I would never push the redline like that at that speed. Now I gotta go for a ride after work.
Nick, what have you seen on yours? What rpm?

I don't know guys..??..If thats a speedo and he is over 200 then check out the lines on the road and the rest of the background..Look at the road at 100...Looks more like 40 mph..seems like the speeds are way off..And how can a bike go from 50 to 100 in 2 seconds on the back wheel without losing control??..I really want to belive this tape is for real..so someone convince me or post some more video..

Tantrum- back in my production bike racing days my redline was 11500, I would shift at 12999 every shift of every lap, just before the 13000 rev limiter........go into the red it wont blow. Actually at Mosport (I live 20 min away) on this one short straight I would gauge how good of a drive I got out of the previous corner by how many burps of the rev limiter I would hit before I had to back off for the next corner........one sucked, two was OK, three was the best!......Doug
