I think you need a Hayabusa to fulfill your high speed needs.

I would check the fallaway. It's possible the neck bearings need adjusted. Also check the alignment of the rear wheel.

I'd try putting a dial indicator on your brake rotors and checking the run out on them. Turning the RPM's you are talking about, anything that is not almost perfect is going to be amplified at those speeds.
