      Like i mentioned earlier, my intent was not to validate if you were stating facts. I was also excited to know the bigger kawa was here and wanted to check it out, hence called them. Pity they had no clue.

      Peace.

        the bike in that vid is going half the speedo indicated speed... or even slower.
        I hear 5 gear shifts in this video?
        and he was at around 8k rpm,
        Cant the N650 do 200 at 9k rpm in 5th or 6th gear?
        Correct me if am wrong,
        PEACE

        EDIT:check this video even in this he does a 206 at 9k ish rpm,
        uma rodovia qualquer em Minas Gerais ...nao deu pra acelerar mais por causa da curva logo a frente. =/

        • Guys, sorry to break the ice, but i think its the proper speed.. I mean, there could be an error of 10% max, but that's about it.. The reason it feels so slow is because its a five laned freeway, and secondly, the cars are doing 120-130kmph.. So, this will feel that way.. I've zoomed past vehicles at around 120+ when they were doing 50, so i kinda realize that in this video.. Also, internationally, the white lines are longer.. About 10m each, with the same 10m gap between two consecutive lines.. So, I'm sure it's real.. Besides, do u guys think Kawasaki would release a bike with 50% speedo error..?

              Firstly i do not think so that this video is released from kawasaki..
              nothing official about it...

              I have ridden at speed of 160+ many a times and i know that the white line pass very quickly..
              Look at distant poles in the video.. can you see that their approaching speed is also slow.
              RIP Marco

                if you cant believe in the speedo check the sound,
                he has done 5 gear shifts after starting in 1st gear....
                check where a N650 does 200,
                In every video i saw N650 doing 200 at 8k-9k

                • it take's about 18 seconds for him to hit 200 kmph.

                  in 5th gear.. at 8500 RPM

                  the GT650R takes about the same time too.


                  even tho the video does make it seem like he's going much slower...

                  must agree... it does seem accurate.

                    Doesnt it have the extra gear?
                    then why did i listen 5 gear shifts in the 1st video?
                    did i go deaf

                      haha. i meant 6th gear of-course.

                      - switches to 2nd at 3 seconds

                      - switches to 3rd at 5 seconds

                      - switches to 4th at 7 seconds

                      - switches to 5th at 9 seconds

                      - switches to 6th at 13 seconds

                            I didn't mention that it was official.. And, please remember that the white lines in India are usually only 5m long on the highways and not 10m as in foreign countries.. Anyways, its each person's view point.. Lets stand by our individuality and coexist..

                            I'd love to have the Yoshimura just to irritate my neighbor for his annoying car reversing tone.. When he's asleep, i ought to go near his car and rev this.. Then he'll know how others feel when they're disturbed in sleep..
