    I always get a kick out of folks who don't/won't/can't answer the question but feel the need to preach.

    I'm not sure how to read your post...
    You didn't answer either, and who were you preaching to? The Preachers????

    Sorry... just busting on you a bit...

    But that explains everything...
    He was asking about the 1330s; not the 998s.

    130??

    Default top speed

    I had my F3's SE6 up to 110mph in 5th gear and ran out of room. Problem is the acceleration is rather slow toward the upper end & running out of room is fairly common plus processing the data---traffic--police--road debris. I can get my turbo busa from 75mph to 150 mph and back down to 75 in a 1/4 mi run. Video attached running 9-10psi out of possible 18-19 psi.

    If you feel the need for speed, go to Spyderfest and do some drag racing. There's a F3 class...

    Well actually I did on occasion during the twelve years I raced for Kawasaki. But then I was young and foolish. Now I'm only foolish.

    Don't tell anyone but even now on occasion I let the Badger loose.

    Yep, a true adventurer. Can't stand to sit still. Many interests. Music, flying, boating, motorcycles, but then if you have lived this long and had a job with tons of time off it's not too hard. Always on the lookout for more excitement. Isn't that what life is all about? I'm not through yet.
