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
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...215Fallguy.jpg

Update.
The last few times I used my TIMEX SPEED DISTANCE TRIATHLON GPS SPORTS WATCH I got a speed of 45.1 for both the GRC RR and GRC GP..Yet the RR is a much faster bike.
I think I am getting GPS lag at the track..I seem to be getting the end of the straight to fast whereas the GPS signal can't keep up..I tested the watch in a car and it take awhile to catch up to actual speed at times..
I also need to try and wear the watch on my arm instead of putting it in my jacket pocket.
The only way I'm going to get a tru speed reading from this watch is to ride the bikes on a longer straight..
But in my goal to record speed I bought a Radar gun and Pocket Bike Speedo off Ebay..

The speedo sucked..I think I have it set wrong..It gets up to 17mph and then starts reading backwards..17,16-15..blank..
I'm really moving on the bike though..13.5 HP...I think the front wheel is spinning to fast for the speedo..
At the end of the track it read 46 mph once..../17,16,15..Blank 46 mph....then I just didn't bother looking at it anymore...17,16,15 blank..
I'm going to try other settings..and put a second speedo on a Cag...It may work best on a cag,that I'll be lucky to get up to 27mph on..On the Cag it'll take longer to get up to full speed so the speedo may be able to keep up..
My Radar gun read me going 41,43 then 46MPH so the Speedo getting 46 after blanking out seemed right.....

Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL

I know this is an old posti just didn't want to take up more space by starting a new thread. I'm going to want to check my top speed for my cag once i finish modding it but there are not enough places to get it checked (there aren't that many street sighn radars in the area where i live) so i'm thinking about a radar gun. I don't to spend that much money so i looked at this hotwheels radar gunfor 30$. Does anybody know if this would be accurate enough?

I wanted to buy one of the Hotwheel Radar Guns,but I haven't been having good luck with Hotwheel items..The two Hotwheel Speedos.set up for Pocket Bikes stink(though I've yet to try them on a cag)...

Looking around Ebay for one I would up buying a BUSHNELL SPEED RADAR GUN and it works better then expected..It's durable too..

Pocket Bike speeds I've taken at the track..

Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL

Hey,

I live in Australia, i hit 60kph (37mph i think) on a flat surface on my x2.

Ive got a pacsales fatty exhaust which is ported, New digital speedo with the right wheel settings programed in, and the bike is lightened.
Still more to be done to the bike.

Cheers.

Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL

For those of you trying to figure out how to attach the plastic covered magnet which comes with bicycle speedometers (the ones that are supposed to be snapped onto the spokes of a bicycle tire)

Go to home depot and buy the #11 EXPOXY it is the best for bonding plastic to metal (magnet to the rim)

It will hold @ top speed - I have tried.

Re: How you got your TOP SPEED Results POLL

if anybody has VZW Navigator on there phone like i do, if you do a "follow me map" from your gps location & go to options---> location info, it will give you your speed, heading, altitude, time, etc.. cool stuff

also if you want to hack ur phone for free stuff check out this place
