especially braking, heh.
and you cannot trust a bikes speedo, either. my gps said i was going 5-7% slower than the bike said.

Does the ZX14 doing 196 at Maxton count as close enough?
Excerpt from a SportRider mag awhile back:
Well stock a zx14 is not going over the 186 limiter ..But at Maxton a zx14 with 24 miles in the clock went 196.1 breaking the stock production record....Some say it wasn't stock because they swapped the 17 tooth front sprocket for a 18 tooth ..This gear change fools the limiter so you can go faster than the 186.. This gear change while not stock is ok by Maxton rules for production class...Brocks own zx14 broke 200 with a piped and P/C zx14, thin oil and trick wheel bearings....But the motor was untouched...No Busa or zx12 with just a pipe/ P/C has run 200... No Busa or zx12 that i know of has gone 196.1 with just a gear change ..
