Hi all,
First, I have a Kawasaki Ninja 1000 2012, 7000km, all parts are stock, no modification.
I would like a confirmation for my hypothesis. Here it is :
I notice a reduction of power at around 200km/h (120m/h). I can feel it. I drop my speed down to 180km/h than push full throttle again and I feel the lost of power again around 200km/h.
I made a race with my cousin (he have a VFR800). At around 140km/h we start a race and I pass in front of him with ease. We try again at around 200km/h and he have the same acceleration than me. I was like... WHAT THE **** :O
I am almost convinced that Kawasaki introduce with the electronic control, a feature that reduce the power at higher speed than 200km/h. I have no Dino test and the one I found are done regarding the revolution, but certainly at 4th gear or less, which mean at lower speed. I would like to know if anyone have notice the same reduction of power at 200km/h to know if it is only my bike ? and I am wandering if someone have something measured (dino) at high speed ?
