Why don´t you mention the mods, Matt? Turbo, supercharger, Nitro...? Just kidding, but no stock VTR will go 200km/h, not even downhill! Hey, it´s a 250, and getting 150 km/h is doing well. It´s not a CBR, it´s a non-faired high-handlebar upright-seating position 250 and was never meant to go 200! - Now the Ninja 250 is a different story; even that one won´t do 200. I had one and it went 160km/h on a good day, and that´s impressive for an old 250 twin designed in the 80´s.
