    both are matic
    will never do it again though, got caught speeding paid 2k fine and had to endure about 7 hours claiming my license.
    I never gone 185kph from my GS before but my max speed from that beloved car was 150kph (tplex) and it was like "wiggle". Nakakatakot lalo na't mahina ang tie rod nung oto ko noon.

    bro di ba mas mabagal ang MC mas succeptible sa crosswind, hence no speed limit for MC sa expressway? please correct me if im wrong ha. may friend din ako na naka 1000cc and 700cc, ang sabi nya nakaka "antok" daw ang speed na 100- 120kph sa express lalo na kung maluwag.

    depende sa laki ng makina bro..... nakakaantok sa 80-100 kph, pero pag lumampas ka na ng 120 kph, ramdam mo na dahil sa crosswind nga, pumapalo sa iyo.

    not sure kung may speed limit nga sa mga expressways sa MC, wala pa namang sumisita sa akin even before. pero, baka dahil sa mas maliit ang gulong ng MC sa oto, baka ang 120 kph sa MC is mga 90-100 pa lang sa oto.

    Dunno about others, but I just placed my camera on timer and multishot, then placed it on the wheel, so I can still hold the wheel and keep my eyes on the road.

    May 200 Club and the rarer 300 Club dito. Years ago we bought a car from a 300 Club member. His ride was a Hayabusa. Definitely not your ordinary MC.

    My car is pretty much the same (same year, same engine, no governor) as this guy's except mine has an english/metric speedometer and he has strictly metric. I'm wondering what his location is because he drove awfully fast when there are other cars on the road. Dangerous....probably had one hand on the wheel, the other hand on the camera.

    Scary isn't it? Actually, I was stupid and reckless too when I was younger. But, I wizened up eventually.

    I hope he had V-rated tires which can go up to 149 mph (240 kph). Mine always do. It's also dangerous to have a car that could go that fast and not have the proper tires. A lot of these kids buy the cheapest tires which have the lowest speed ratings.

    As far as objects on the road...... I don't think the car would go out of control if I run over some debris. My main concern is the debris puncturing the underside of the car such as the gas tank.

    minsan kasi bro instead of going over the debris, may chance din na "makaladkad" and mag skid. at that speed, even the slightest debris can cause major damage din.

    From my experience unintentionally running over debris and animals at high speeds, you're either going to run over them or push them out of the way. In the case of animals, there were some jackrabbits that were crushed under the tires. The deer I hit in New York was thrown clear by the impact, but not before crushing the front of the car. I had total control the whole time. There was a big KA-BLAG! My wife didn't even realize we hit a deer at first. Then we saw pieces of the bumper sticking up above the hood.

    There's really nothing for debris to latch on to on the car.

    The most dangerous debris on the road are the shredded tires, even the small strips. If you run over them, they're flexible enough to act like a whip. They can easily puncture metal. I couldn't avoid running over a small strip one time. It punctured the gas tank of our minivan which caused fuel to start dripping. Good thing I had an extended warranty which covered its replacement.

    akala ko mas safe yung rubber ng shredded tires, kasi ginagawang humps dito sa atin ^_^

    Hit 170-175 kph briefly on SCTEX on a weekday with a gen 2 1.3L vios. Not really a speedfreak but that long stretch of bare highway convinced me to tempt fate

    Speed? I was doing 60 mph (97 kph) which is the posted speed limit. We hit the deer around 1 am at night. I was doing 60 mph as well when I ran over the shredded tire strips.
