Eh? No way that homemade speedo is reading right. Look at how slow the scenery goes by when he's supposed to be doing 125mph.

I'm sure that's how we look when we overtake, too.

I dont think the speedo is very far off, I timed 100 meters (2 reflective posts next to the road) to around 190 km/h when it was showing 200.

Certainly a very fast RS4, not quite the fastest in the world but 500-600 horsepower and a manual gearbox goes a long way.

Damn thats fast! it makes me wonder if I should buy a RS4 instead of a RS6!

if only I could buy both then I'd be a happy man :biggrin3:

I reckon 10-15% correction factor for a aftermarket speedo is about ball park, I had a aftermarket speedo on my ZX6R and it was 13.7% out after calibration. Why does it flash all red when he hits 175kph & 200Kph? speed alert maybe?

When you are pulling away from a bike that is trying you know it is fast...
