Sure. Just change the stock gearing. Stock is 17 front/40 rear. This is what I run out here in the middle of nothing.
It's fast enough for me. Some run a 16/38 gear.

With 18/40 mine would come real close to 189mph on an 04. That was on a dyno. 
I'll be happy to test out the 08 when I get mine.

Not stock though. Pipe, chip, Power Commander, suspension mods, lowered, etc.
I doubt a bone-stock new one will do a true 200. Close, but in this speed range it takes ridiculous amounts of extra power to gain even a few mph and the old Busa was a good 10-15 mph short in stock form, and a lot of owners reported they couldn't hit the 186mph limiter.

I don't disagree, but, the original post was asking how fast a derestricted model would go. Derestricted = not stock.
I would venture a guess that the limitations are probably also due to aerodynamic drag.
