See if you think this is real.

Watch the first one ("Turbo Hayabusa")
Watch the speedometer

Think the speedometer is in MPH or KPH?? either way, that's pretty amazing...if it's real

It's MPH. It is very believable, The Suzuki 'Busa is the fastest stock sport bike on the markets. You could do that stock. Wheelies aren't that hard on crotch rockets either.

That dosn't suprise me at all. Those Busa's are unreal. Ive rode the yamaha R1 and can attest that those things are completely insane. That r1 will do 102mph in 1st gear for cripes sake. No thanks. Not for me. Id be dead.

A few friends of mine that have the r1 and cbr 1000 have attested to speeds of 180-190 and it was still pulling strong. And thats not even a turbo.

Amazing and probably for real, kph. Have a friend with a zx1r that has run his up to 145 in third and it wasnt redlined. Test rode a Triumph Sprint about a month ago and it ran up to 120 in second no problem. Sportbikes are way fun and way dangerous, but glad we have the option! 1TRAK

Look up a few Ghost Rider video's... Insane
I miss my street mounts, but, I cant take the chances like I used to

It was an early 'busa, insurance companies weren't happy about 220mph bikes, and pressured zook into putting speed limiters on them. That 220 speedo reminds me of the first 'busa that I ever saw, I think it was a 2000, but it might have been a '99.

My ZRX 1100 will go 0 to hospital in about 1 second! I will say, that bike is insane and 99.9% of John Q. Public don't need one...

Drag strips don't measure speed, they measure quickness. :nod:

Nope, not a ZRXOA member. What is Skeenah? I can't say that I have ever heard of it.
