Hmmm, well for a data point, my '99 ZX9r, that dyno'd at around 134 RWHP
(IIRC) topped out at around 165 indicated with my wide ass on it with a
looser jacket. So the ST and rider with a rain suit, true speed of
130-140, very healthy I would suspect.
Anything over 100 mph cars are going to have a *HUGE* advantage in
regards to aerodymanics. Pure and simple.
