R1 was limited to 300 km/h but there's no doubt that Benz was pulling and hitting 200 mph easy. :uh oh:

Note: video was taken in Sweden

That AMG is crazy fast to be able to pull that R1 like that. It can't be stock. Also if you watch the tac the R1 reaches 290 at 12.75k RPM and you can see it reach almost 14k a couple of times. If the speedo is correct, which alot of time on bikes they are not then he was going over 299 KMPH.

Speedo was pegged, but since it's digital, I don't think it reads over the limit it's set at. Both were doing close to 200 for sure.
