I still feel that way Rich, I very rarely go over 10k, there isnt a road I travel on that allows it tbh  At 13k on my 400 in 1st its doing at least 55mph (indicated)  Stupid fast, cant imagine what 600+ is like

ah J1's well they aren't super quick, 160mhp will do almost everyone tho lol
G2's are where its at, 170+ and trust me when i say they will do over 170mph, fathers one does 170mph at 11.5k in top gear red line is at 14k..
if you change the can (im pritty sure the J1 is still carbed and not fuel injected) then get the thing set up for the can or you are more than likely gona get flat spots

Wait till you try a 1000cc SB and see 105mph in 1st gear  , with 5 more left
As for 170, not quite, R6's are the quickest 600cc's with around 168-172mph flat out. Mine runs about 120bhp @ rear wheel and will only do 165 odd. Your looking at a real 160-165mph though on the kwak, which is enough to scare, and very much kill you anyway.
