Anyone Running 240 Tire?

I ask this because I am contemplating re-gearing my turbo to run over 200mph and it has been suggested that the tire rim combination may not be stable over 200. I have run 185 gps with the current gear and didn't feel anything but am now wondering about it.

Hi, check out the gearing ready rekoner attached. It gives gearing ratios and theoretical top speeds.

I have run 197.3 on standard tyres (200 section) with no problem, even taking one hand off the bars to reduce drag the bike was very stable.

Cheers
