Yep, I meant 150 kph (93 mph).  If I had to guess I'd say that I could probably get it close to 125 mph.  Don't think I ever will though.  Far too fast for me on a 30+ year old bike.

Heck, if I was doing 150 kph on the street that is 50 kph over any speed limit here and that is an instant street racing charge.  Instant license suspension, immediately impounded vehicle (7 days), possible vehicle seizure depending on the judge, minimum $2,000 fine.  Maximum 6 month jail time.

Don't speed in Ontario.
