Big bore or dry shot of nitrous will get you over 200mph if your bike is geared and unrestricted.

195rwhp and a good rider with the proper gearing, and good weather conditions, can break 200mph in the standing mile at Maxton.

"READ THE ABOVE STATEMENT AS" Your mileage will vary greatly! :D For an average person on a "Busa" bring about 225 HP for total non skilled bring about 250 HP. Also "Size matters" if you are small and not experienced bring about 210 HP. Bergie and Dan are about the only 2 people that have done it with right around 200 HP on a ZX12

To answer your other question the top speed of a bike with just a PC3 and pipe with a good rider in the standing mile will be around 194 MPH.   I went 192.5 repeatedly in 95+ degree heat at Maxton on a stock ZX12R, only mod was a Muzzys pipe; no PC3, no other mods period.  That bike made about 168hp.

Like I said, if you are small and not experienced bring 210 HP Scott is extremely experienced and not large either! For people my size and a little experience bring 225 HP (I was right at 200 with about 215 to 220 HP)
