Scott you left out Bill Warner's 255 naked pass and my 248 naked pass. You included Scott Horner's so why not list these? and others for that matter!

I'd think an oversight.....unfortunately;y a very fast oversight. It sucks not to see Dave Owens name on that list.

This makes like the 10th list now!  So some runs on this list are  not actual records then? If your talking records then my 251 doesn't belong.

I'll ask Steston about that....he doesn't forget anything....believe me. He remembers his CB750 times like it was yesterday.

Most of the Finnish speeds, and all that are on this list now, are measured by GPS devices, 10hz Racelogic Performance Box or Motec 20hz. There was speed traps in one event last year but no fastest bikes there. Antti Pietilä ran 203mph in Bonneville last year, and i ran 243mph in Elvington, these were using speed traps.
This year there should be more riders going to UK and also better speeds are expected in the Finnish event where speed traps are used.

Me voidaankin sitten puhua suomeksi tästä eteenpäin niin olisi mulle ainakin helpompaa.

Before 2009 there were venues using 1800m distance, but in top20 there is only one speed from that era. And there seems to be also some radar speeds, sometimes when other devices failed, that was the only measured reading.
