The 250 can go 110mph... that is fast enough for the street. It sounds like you are looking to be hot doggin around town like a squid if that isn't fast enough.

A 500 can go about 120ish... no that much faster.

Taking into consideration recent events, A guy lost his life going 50mph on a road with bends I love going 120mph+ on... That along with the fact that I went down @ the track on a similar bend, going 100+ made me realize had it happened to me on the street I would have been dead...

So why you wanna go over a 100mph for? You wanna drag race??? if not, then rethink your goals with the new toy...

Now I will agree the 250 & 500 don't look so hot... in that case a ZZR600, YZF600r or even an R6s are more than you should be considering, but look a heck of a lot better and can go about 140+ (if going that fast makes you think you are "fast")
