This is definately a load of bull.
If you look at this particular clip, there is no way he is doing 50 behind the car. That speedo is in kmh.

Therefore, he was not doing 160 etc on the road. |

I have the full quality version on my pc, he tops it out at 186 in 6th which is what they are limited to. The speedo is right and in mph.  ____________________ ***Previous: GPR50, FZ750 *** Current: Monkey bike, yella SV 650 ***

The speedo is right as far as speedos go.
Ie, it is not in km as the OP suggested.
I don't know, I love the whole video so am pointlessly arguing it's case.  ____________________ ***Previous: GPR50, FZ750 *** Current: Monkey bike, yella SV 650 ***

the only thing thats wrong on that Vid IMO is the error the manufacturers have built into the speedo.
on a runway i've seen a GSXR 6 reach a max indicated 16something mph, the speed trap reported 147mph, an R1 had an indicated 172, speed trap said 157 (the fastest on the day)
Aprilia speedo's on the other hand were very accurate, my Tuono - indicated 152, actual 147. An oldish RSVR - indicated 157 actual 152.
jap speedo's lie  |

Ah good.
Sorry for this spammy post, by the way guys.
Now I have thought about it, it does look faster than 30. I think I was clutching at straws more because for the rest oft he video, it really doesnt look like he is doing 150, etc |
