Myself, mid 150's comming off the front straight at Firebird on an R6, and mid 170's on both my R1 and GSX-R750 on US95.

bike's speedos are way WAY off... so I doubt you guys were even close to the speeds you think. the aero alone on those bikes is a problem.
I went 161 in the Z, previously have went 155 and 156.

155MPH with the Nismo Z the topend limiter stopped me at that point.Actually it was pretty stable and in the top of 5th gear.It was a lot more stable at top speed than my 26R Lotus Elan was at 145mph.40 years of areodynamic improvement really make a difference.
Eastern washington has many open highways....

I feel like once I break 90 I am more paranoid about flying by a cop or someone cutting me off than the stability of the car at high speeds. Got caught 1 out of the 4 times I opened it up on a wide open highway and ended up with a $360 ticket
