Salt is all said and done for the year, and someone caught my fastest run last week on Vid, not a fast year due to wet salt but definitely exciting.
So for anyone thinking about coming out next year here is a bit of what you can expect http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyOmmOMFnbc

Well done Greg, awesome stuff. I have been waiting to hear the results.
There is no strong performance without a little fanaticism in the performer

Excellent and unbelievable at the same time. Good on ya Maj.
I love hearing blokes talking on the street about how their turbo ZX6 does 250mph on the Pacific Highway...

I know someone who has a suzi 750 that can go nearly that fast
 Fantastic effort mate well done.

Actually fairly dissapointed in the speeds, but thats the conditions of the day and its the same for everyone.
750 went faster at Bonneville but the salt there was much better. A friend Kim rode my 750 here, she ran 182mph and could have gone faster if there was more time, it ran very well and handled great. Good to meet Phil out there (Harrera) another with salt fever now .

Greg - Does the bike feel reasonably planted at that speed? and realistically how much faster could you safely run?
Cheers John

Not very planted at all in those conditions, that was wobbling like Burts Indian and occasionaly missing a wobble and staying out the side for a minor "is this it "moment, couldn't have run faster and believe me i wanted too.
You could hear in the vid full revs in 5th but fairly constant in top due to an unwilling right hand.. That ecu has had the reflash done for 11500 rpm with hardcut fuel shutoff to not burn pistons when running on the limiter, (std cuts 50% fuel to 1&4)

Well done, seeing your ride has made me more determined to get on salt and see what the old girl can do. Congratulations, cant wait to see what you pull of next year.
