Btw....its a Suzuki GSX R 1300 Hayabusa estimated going 230-240mph ....speedo stops at 220!

Thats amazing, he put down the wheelie at 140 and kept on going to at least 240. That is scary fast.

 

Have talked to some who say the video is rigged. They changed the sprockets and threw the speedo out of whack to make it look like it was going that fast. But who can say unless you where there right. Still a good video.

 

He wen't past a skid mark at over 100 when he was slowing down and it didn't look like he pasted it going as fast as you would think, but at any rate, he was flying!!

 

Yeah that looked rigged to me, especially when you seen the car coming up on the left hand side.

 

that video is fake, look at the lines on the road, then next time you are driving on the freeway look at the lines, my guess is that they were doing around 80 or so. when the Hyabusa first came out they got professional racers to drive the bike, they said yes it is capable of doing over 200 m.p.h. off the show room floor, but they would never take a bike that speed on the roads, regular highways were not built to be driven that fast on so there are variances in the pavement, when they tested it the took it on a track and did take it over 200 but not for long. I have ridden and owned a Yamaha YRZ 500 2 stroke street bike capcable of doing over 150, I have seen 135 myself and the speedo did not climb as fast as the video did, and I was on a 2 stroke. Granted it is a fast bike but the video is fake.

 

remember that wide open fields and roads make any speed seem slow.

 

80 in first gear? Yah right. Rigged all the way. You can tell if you've even been up to 200 like I have. Not real.

 

Defiantly a Sprocket change. That alone can make a huge error in the speedo.

 

I didn't see the video, but 80 in 1st gear isn't that out of reach. My FZ1 will do at least 60 in 1st gear, but I don't like to go that close to redline. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
