Default fastest street speed??

I was wondering what is the fastest you all have seen someone get up to on the street. We had a friend fly by us at 190 mph on his bussa.

hah! i rarely take my car above 100 on the street. you just never know what could happen. even if i'm racing, i've usually won or made my point well below 100.

a tad over 130 in my ZX3 LOL i never took the stang higher than maybe 120 ...yet. the fastest i've been though without me driving was on one of my buddy's CBR900, around 150ish. that was scary because it was also my first time on a bike, went from about 30 to 90 on a wheelie, i thought my back was gonna scrape on the street.[&:]

i would never let someone drive like that if i was on the back. you life is literally in his hands. i had my old fzr600 bouncing of the rev limiter at 155-58 for 10min on the turnpike. i sold it 4 years ago because my good buddy tried to pass a car (in a no passing zone) at 80 and the car turned left and he t boned it. he somehow walked away with only major scrapes and bruises. shortly after that most of us sold our bikes and got atv's bc we knew i would probably kill ourselves eventually. my stang's speedo goes to 140 and it's been burried, so who knows but fast.

like 150+ish... on I-95.... sort of scary when your needle on the speedometer is closer to the other side of 0 then the last digit 130...

My speedo reads 155 max. I've buried it there, so maybe 160-165. Of course that is speedometer reading, not radar-recorded...
