I have no idea, but, I need to work it out lol.  I may just do some trackdays on the rocket, corner it fairly easy in the slow group and absolutely send it down the straight.  Should be able to crack 180 on the straight at the ridge.  I was ticking 151-153 mph consistently on the Daytona there with tons of space to brake, deliberately not trying to pile the bike into turn 1.


If that's doesn't work out for whatever reason, I have the 1/3 mile roll race where I was cracking 155 mph on the rocket last year, 70 horsepower ago, to test on, 170+ should be easily reached there.


I'm not super worried about stability, the bikes rock stable over 150, more concerned with traction at the salt.  Crosswinds could of course change that,  but on a brick like the R3 the center of gravity vs center of drag will be so far apart it should self correct easily. 


Once I drop the back of the bike down, so it's not raked forward to improve cornering, she's going to be stable like a train.


I'll have 2 miles to get up to speed before the timed mile, so even at low throttle it should be pleeeeenty of space.


In all honesty I see 150+ on a somewhat regular basis lol, just running 2nd to 3rd hard is well past 100 and I do it just about every time I merge onto the freeway.
