Today I managed to achieve really high speed - 194 kph (around 120.5 mph). Of course this is a GPS, not the speedometer measurement (check the attachment). I am very surprised Scrambler can do it, I wouldn't believe it before.
Motorbike's setup:
- Zard low mounted slip-on, with dB killers and catalytic converter
- BoosterPlug
Weather and road conditions:
- 10 °C
- Not windy
- Flat road
According to my calculations, in order to achieve this speed, engine's RPM needs to be equal to 8550. Standard Scrambler has a peak power at 8250 RPM. Perhaps the exhaust and the BoosterPlug shifted the peak power a bit higher This is the only one explanation I can see for now.
Any thought?
