Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL


I rode it off a cliff. I hit about 208mph free falling 749 feet. Tragic ending though... Good thing the bike only suffered minor scratches in the fairings and i only had a bruised arm. I was clocked by an apache fighter helicopter.

Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL

wow,
dangerous way to get'em.
Driving next to a car means that the driver has to periodically take his eyes off you and the road to scan the dash... That could be dangerous, I worry when I run next to another rider and I can't swurve for bumps and such...

I love the GPSr's for the speed runs. They're accurate, fun, relatively cheap, and they have a million other uses too (I.e. www.geocaching.com)

B-T-W with the right programs you can also get your 0-30's off them too.. and your lap times, and so on Great fun.

Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL

Most people ride next to vehcle? By the time you pay the fines and muck about with breath testers youd be better of buying a speedo. Like me The only catch is you need sticky tape to hold the magnet onto the wheel.

Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL

I bought one of these :TIMEX SPEED DISTANCE TRIATHLON GPS SPORTS WATCH
though I've yet to try it..Hopefully I can this week..

http://www.timex.com/spd/

EXACT SPEEDS
Measures your real-time speed, average speed and maximum speed.

Average speed or pace, maximum speed or best pace, and accumulated distance, continuous odometer, metric or English units

thefallguy from TSMMR uses one of these to determine how fast he on going/the Pocket Bikes speed on the track..

Here's one of his speed runs..I took this picture of the watch after he got off the track...64.5MPH

Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL

drove my car next to my little bro on the bike, he hit 29mph, then did it again (different area/road) next to me riding my cbr, he got it up to 28 on my digital speedo gauge on my cbr. Pretty quick but we want more!!

Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL

I got my top speed from racing at spokane raceway park every once in a while we make a class for pocket bike and mini dragsters my x-6 does a 1/8 mile time of 10.80 at 67miles(my best personal time) an hour anyone who lives in Spokane Washington should bring their bike in and race. allthough its pretty hard on the bike the back fork snaped off from wear and tear. costing $100 to fix it.

Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL

I determine my speed using simple math, and the RPM of the motor.

First, to determine RPM, I made a home-made inductive pickup, wrapped it around my plug wire, and connected it to a tape recorder. This way, the tape record records a "click" every time the coil fires. (1 revolution)
I then record the audio onto my PC as a WAV file and calculate how many clicks per minute...
This is a VERY accurate way of determining your RPM.

I then just threw the RPM, along with the wheel, and sprocket sizes to determine my exact speed.

According to my ratio calc, I am hitting 58.75MPH on my tornado @ 11,220RPM

Mind you, this is a reasonably modded bike.
49cc mitsubishi clone motor
Fully ported cyl.
Removed base gasket
longer plug for higher compression
Ported intake manifold for bigger carb
HUGE 19mm tillotson carb (from a stihl chainsaw)
lightened flywheel
Removed starter/generator rotor
lightened clutch
rocket key
Fully modded stock exhaust, removed 4" of header, added 3" of belly, and an 8" long 1/2" diameter stinger.

Here is a screenshot with the results:
