Anyone got a Dt running better than this?

If I see a DT do a genuine 100mph I'll buy a hat and eat it

@finnerz89 My brothers 2001 dt125 indicated 100 with full dep ram air 38mm carb 170 athena

But yeah, wouldn't trust the dt speedo, and we only measured it with a '97.... Fiat Punto GT, so hardly trustworthy lol

Indicated and actually doing it are two different kettles of fish.

@finnerz89 I don't no I think it could different gearing modified well wind behind you I only get 10k revs out of my bike and I get 80mph maybe 85 downhill , not modified ish, I think original piston and rings, chain and sprockets

[finnerz89]

@calum most speedos (cars included) read 10% over as I'm sure you know.
I've seen plenty of claims about 100mph but I'm yet to see one with a GPS or genuine corrected speedo, hence my pessimism lol.
I'd love to be proven wrong I just highly doubt it

[finnerz89]

@terry-tz I think you'll find that extra 15mph very hard to attain. Is that 80mph corrected or indicated?

[terry.tz]

@finnerz89 I don't no to be honest but I would say it is like il GPS it next time I go out so later then il put a reader on my phone now any apps you recommend

[finnerz89]

@terry-tz I've used a couple off the play store, they all seem to work alright

I must have the only dtr that's speedo under reads lol. I thought it felt quicker than speedo showed, checked speed at 30 with gps, showed actual speed was 33mph.

@dtr-nsr mine does that too

[finnerz89]

Lol mine never used to show much above 50, but I think that was because the speedo cable got ripped out when I came off once.
Dead weird as you could be passing traffic on the dual carriageway at only 55mph

That's how I 1st got my suspicions, flying by traffic on dual carriage way doing only 60-65. Like you say felt very weird!

sorry I didn't get back to this sooner I dropped the bike the night after this post and she has been running rich since I don't know why or maybe she just doesn't like the cold but even warmed up she not the same mind I have a pillion most of the time but she gets 75-76 with a pillion and I see that on the speedo, to be honest, she might under-read but only by a few mph
