i was reading about a movie carmaker who is planning to supe up his bike to TWO THOUSAND HORSE POWER in the motortrend with the new corvette convertible on the cover. this amazes me, how can a bike have 2000 hp???? and if it can, how do u not rocket off the back as soon as u twist the throttle???

Wow dude that seems IMPOSSIBLE. But ill give you the benefit of the doubt, it AINT gonna work. Im about 99 percent if they did make it, it will be SHOW ONLY. You cant ride a bike with that much power. You would get tossed off as soon as you hit the throttle. Shit just think, can they even squeeze that much out of a car? I highly doubt it.

Have you ever heard of the "Boss Hoss" It is a custom bike with a chevy 350 engine. It is the most horse power I heard of!

how about a bike garanteed to do 400k's an hour (250mph)
the y2k turbine superbike is powered by a rolls royce c18-250 jet turbine from a helicopter. produces peak power at 56,000 rpm.
only two gears 1st takes you to 80k's (50mph) just to warm the bike up to operating temperature of 648 degrees celsius
power is 225kw (341bhp) and 580nm torque and weighs 240kg(530lbs)
quarter mile in 9.3 at 248 kph (154mph)
top speed recorded is only 365.3 k's (227mph) because they ran out of room
a dude in oregon was clocked doing 230mph in a 65mph zone

My buddy from Oregon has talked to that guy with the Y2k and sadly it was taken from him and his license was taken as well. From what he says it cannot go much faster than 245 because of many factors such as aero design not being great. Of course the bike is capable of doing higher speeds but in reality it wont, too many factors. Frankly I find 245 hard to believe but thats just me. Im thinking like 225 max.
