200 kph = 125 mhp. It's hard to imagine maintaining control at that speed. Must have been a nice, level road.

Keep yer stick on the asphalt..

125 mph isn’t reall all that fast on the right sport bike

[TurboZamboni]

not a big deal. lots of bone stock bikes can do 0-125 mph and back to 0 in under 25 seconds.

At 125 he had to have at least to gears left.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

125mph isn’t much on a Ducati or some of the behemoths these days. 175 - 200 would be news.

Ghost Rider in Sweden claims 353 kph. That's 219mph.

I worked with a guy who used to drive his desmodromic Ducati at speeds over 140 mph on Texas highways.

125 for a bike today is very easy.

[Red Badger]

I used to do 100+ mph on my motorcycle in the desert east of Palm Springs.....................

[CodeToad]

Easy to do. A good bike does that no sweat. I’ve had several that coul...I mean, Hey! Who does such a thing??!!

I’ve been 180+mph 3 times, 170+mph dozens of times, and 160+ more than I can remember. Used to do trackdays on my R1 years ago. Now I have a ZRX1200 that’s good up to about 130mph.

Autoroute 40 runs right thru Montreal, and is bumpy in parts. I have been on the road a few times...and max speed on it is 80-90 k (50-55 mph). Lucky he didn’t a pothole or bridge connection
