Fast street riders
Yamaha riders represent in Tarrant Co.
(No, this is not a challenge, do not do this)
From the article: https://www.star-telegram.com/news/stat ... 09775.html
Top 3 highest speed tickets issued in Tarrant County in 2016 were riding for team blue
145 in a 70 on I 20 on an R1
140 in a 60 on Chisholm Trail on an unspecified Yamaha motorcycle
136 in a 65 on 121 on an unspecified Yamaha motorcycle
121 in a 60 4th place goes to Honda... difficulty factor: A Honda Sedan
121 in a 65 on 360 on a 2007 Honda motorcycle (Tooner, what year is your CBR? no reason, just curious)
Statewide results were higher, as you would expect...
Two of these also got hit for evading
176 in a 65 on a ZX-10R
167 in a 40 on an unspecified Suzuki
161 in a 75 in a 2007 Audi of some sort
160 in a 70 on an unspecified Yamaha
150 in a 55 on a Yamaha YZF (no further model ID)

Re: Fast street riders
I bet they are slower than a snail in molasses on a real road (twisty, country road) or the track.
Chance favors the prepared mind.

Mine is a 2009. This is good stuff, so far I don't think any have come after me.JeffStrom wrote:Yamaha riders represent in Tarrant Co.

Re: Fast street riders
I am sure the Audi was a turbo as they have several capable. I might have hit a good bit higher in the BMW 335I but still have not found out where it tops out.

Re: Fast street riders
The ZX-10R is the only one I don't know for sure that I've topped. Oddly enough I was on a ZX-10R at the time. Speedo was well over 176.
