With the introduction of better tyres, r1 shocks, bgm suspension I reckon there's not a lot else you can do tbh, lets face it would you sit on the back of what is basically a fridge freezer turned over and want to do 90mph anywhere other than a race track, :shock:
I think not a:grin:

Tyre pressures also make a big difference, wheel bearings and everything else have to be spot on. I worked it out once a 3:50 wheel at 90mph is rotating at something ridiculous like 3000rpm where as a motobike wheel is rotating at no where near that rpm at the same speed.

why bother with all the big cc engines,theres a few 225's that,in the right tuners hands can
achieve higher figures than these 250,260 so called monsters,reckon it could be a bit of a
'cheaper' option aswell
