Weird, I know I have a F3, but I can hit the limiter in 6th, indicating somewhere around 162-3ish. LOL I looked quick. I know thats not correct, one because I am -1 tooth in the front and the speedo's arent correct anyways. But on a dyno, my bike topped 6th at 150(it was actually like 149.65, but I like 150 better LOL) So 150 with a -1 front sprocket hmmmmm Im guessing my bike with stick gearing could do 155ish.
OK F2 and F3 differences. NOT much. F3's got ram air, F2's do not. That could be a big difference at topend. Hotter cams in the F3. Higher compression. Really just a horsepower difference (5-7 at the wheel max)
I believe its just youve hit that wall. Your bike cannot muster the ass to get past that speed, and overcome the air pressure its trying to push.
Bottom line............Get some more HP!!!!
