Has enyone ACTUALLY done 200mph on a 2008+ CBR1000RR?

I havent because my gearing is -1 +1 for the track or +1 in the rear for highway but i always wanted to go down in the rear and maybe up 1 in the front and see what i can get up to with the gps. But like one guy said you need motor work. if you are going to do cams and shave the head i highly recommend getting some ferrera valves and kibble white springs and retainers. I dont see any reason not to upgrade the entire head since youll be in there anyways. My 04 1000rr has a fully built motor with the best parts you can get for a motor and i make 199whp on mr-12 race gas on a STOCK ECU. i havent even upgraded my ecu yet because unfortanately its nearly impossible to find a SBK HRC ECU. but i will be testing out some top speed gearing for fun (although its a track bike) and i can probably easily hit 200 because of the work done.

299 kilometers per hour is 186.9 mph (299/1.6=186.875 because there is 1.6 kilometers in a mile) and dont believe dash numbers as someone could have geared the bike way down making the speedo way off from being accurate.

Not an 08 but my 06 was GPSed (the proper way to determine actual speed) at 184 with a 16/41 sprocket setup. Thats -1 rear from stock. She did not have much left to give at those speeds and it took a fairly long strip of highway to do. You are covering a mile every ~20 seconds at those speeds.

Ima big guy and I got my 2012 to 179 on a garmin gps when it was stock. I need to get the rear spring bumped up before I try again.
