225's not the problem.
Loading the bike into an airplane is the problem.

...and finding a big enough vacuum chamber.

, if you live near Denver, there's probably "the fastest" KZ1000LTD in the entire world for sale on craigslist. Ran 8.74 at 136mph

thats not fast, but its quick! Im looking to hit high 8s next season with the 12. need a little bit more clutch work and a few more bolt on parts and i think im there....on a stock motor:evil: :whistle:

Keep in mind that Denver is called "The mile high city" for a reason, it's approximately one mile above sea level. The same bike run at or near sea level would be faster.

With appropriate fuel adjustment of course.

I miss my old 2005 Z1000



Would of loved to of gotten an auld Z1 but had to settle with a Kz650:cheer:
