OK so heres the ole deal. I have a CRF450R... We are talking about pushing 48hp to the rear wheel stock! Math says it will top out at 93mph in the top of 5th however I know that I have never reached that even blasting across the sand flats. I would be led to believe that my bike does 80-85mph tops. I own a street bike as well which helps me to judge speeds. I know what 20 feels like, I know what 60 feels like, I know what 80 feels like, I know what 100 feels like. Hell, I even know what 170 feels like. The simple fact is that the CR125R pushes around 35hp at the rear tire. Not even the factory bikes make it to 50hp so... If I can't do it, why should you be able to? Now if we are talking a turbo-charged bike that is a whole other story.
