Anyone know the top speed in each gear?

Curiosity question really, don't own the bike so I can check myself and when I test rode a buddies I was keeping my eyes firmly on the road when I grabbed a handfull of throttle.

Every gear is fecking fast and when you hit 8000 rpm in each gear it's fecking, fecking fast with a capital F!!

Don't mean to be facetious but whatever it is it's way over my skill level to control a bike!!

Not being facetious, I was out on my buddies and did some full throttle pulls through third and into fourth and did not have time to look at how fast that is. Just curious.

Tested out each gear till the 4th multiple times ... Rest are from YouTube vids.. Speeds are speedometer reads, so actual gps speeds are prolly lower by 5-10%

1st.. 72mph
2nd.. 96
3rd.. 123
4th.. 142
5th. 164
6th.. 186 then (-) sign

It probably was. The screen is programmed to go blank at 186, shortly there after the limiter kicks in.
