200 indicated on a Hayabusa (probably 188ish actual) 160 in the Quarter on 4 wheels 65 in a Glastron V-Hull Pleasure Boat 180 knots in a private plane (Not the pilot)
Sat down a Wheelie on my 03 R1 at over 153 one time out near Cambellton and Fashing Texas (middle of nowhere if you wad it up). Looked down and saw the speed and had a Oh [bleep] moment. Just got a hold of the right headwind and balance. I thought "man this is a smooth good one". Best part was it was in front of two of my friends!
Passed three bikes on the back straight on one wheel at Texas World Speedway. Me and that bike were great friends until the day it spit me off in Turn 13 at TWS. A couple of Clavicle surgeries later and our lust cooled a little!

Air -probably whatever speed a commercial jet liner flies at. Water - not sure of the speed but it was fast. A ski boat with a 350 chevy and a jet pump circa 1978. I even water skied behind that thing but not at full speed. Land - 135 MPH as a passenger in a '65 Corvette with a big block 396 motor. and once in 1972 I had my 1970 750cc Honda up to 125 mph.. For about 5 seconds and I backed off immediately..... Just that one time and never again.
147mph '89 Honda Hurricane for about 5 seconds and never did that schit again lol.
Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.
175 on 4 wheels- BMW M1 on a downhill. More than that on 2 wheels- Turbocharged Suzuki 1100. Speedo pegged at 260km/h and with another 1500 rpm to go. That one scared the crap out of me. 102 mph (passenger) on water in an Allison with 300hp Mercury Pro-Max. 600 or so on a Boeing 777 Atlanta to Amsterdam.
To anger a conservative, lie to him. To annoy a liberal, tell him the truth.
I woke up from my high speed motorcycle idiocy when the dashed freeway line turned solid.

I know I did a hundred mph in my ford pickup one night. Tried it sober on that same stretch of road and couldn't do it. Scared the holy crap out of me.
I could wish a lot of things on my worst enemy but neuropathy ain't one of them.
The land speed record, 148, was with a 77 TA. The brother of my best friend in HS had the car. Double pumper, open dual exhaust, cam etc etc with the 403.
I went over there one evening, he said 'Micheal is watching TV (his brother, who was only 7 years older but a god). My buddy had the keys. He put the car in neutral and we pushed it out of the garage, down the driveway, into the street and down a block before we started it. The open, dual exhaust was PRETTY load. Sweet Jesus, the fuel gauge moved as quickly as the speedometer.
I remember riding in it with his brother one time in Sarasota. An ambulance was coming up from behind and I said 'Hey Mike, the mirror says objects in mirror are closer than they appear' He said 'Not now'.
80ish gulf of mexico...really big motor...really small boat...once was enough. 130 plus in my Carrera...way more then once Commercial airlines Scariest...one week flying in "Very Used" helicopter around South Island New Zealand with a death wish pilot !!!
