that is rather slow for a R6!!!!
They could easily reach 160mph with 2 up!
my CBR400 could get 130ish out of that!!!
it feels so much faster on a bike cos ur open to all the elements, it feels even faster when u are riding it and not a pillion!

I've been on my Uncles YZF Thundercat at just around 130mph it's amazing!!
The Thundercat is basically the R6 but slightly heavier and slightly down on power

Very good bike the thundercat - My dad used to have a silver and yellow one
He now has a Triumph 955 Sprint - its a tripple and is alot faster than the Thundercat
