Hmmm... Sid, if we all chipped in on a pocket bike and gave it tall gearing and a nitrous setup, would you be willing to drive it?
:D

Oh what a shame I'm on the wrong side of the pond. My Vindicator is theoretically geared to do 182mph at peak power in 5th but I have never competed at a track with a long enough straight to exceed 140mph(and even at that speed the hood was bulging from incoming air and making the steering a little light so an under hood undertray would be a minimum modification anyway-the floor is flat and the diff and tank are up out of the airstream, but the rear valance would also need boxing in).

So as I did a search on google I came across my name on this forum. Hi! Nice to be here even though I'm east coast. As far as the records for the smaller displacement bikes it is harder unless you're smaller, like jockey size! Speaking as a current holder, the record I broke was previously done on a similar bike and being production, not a whole lot left other than imagination, I believe the past record was 63 before I broke it at 69 and most of it was due to he outweighed me by at least 50 lbs! Not advantage like weight on those smaller displacement bikes.
