He is either very.............

stupid or has some balls to be going this fast on a Suzuki Hayabusa

Wow Check it out (http://members.aol.com/shaggyikes/topend_wee.wmv )

:eek:

:eek: :eek: I'm going with elephant-sized brass balls :eek: :eek:

I've seen another movie like this, of a guy doing something crazier than this at night, on a road that's not a straight line. That was just insane!!! Need to track down that video.

That's pretty crazy. I almost shit my pants before I realized that the speedo was in KPH... It's still supafast tho. :sun:

I bet that dude clanks and sparks when he walks.

yea i wanna know what he was doing cuz the speedo maxed out before he got up to 11k revs or whatever it was altho it was pyscho very cool tho

I believe that speedo was in MPH, the 2001-2002 busa's speedo goes up to 220, which it looks like that one does and here is a picture of a busa's speedo in KPH which looks like it goes up to 340 :eek:

I was under the impression that a stock 'Busa would hit 217mph. Who knows if that one was stock or not...

:eek2: Thats some crazy fast acceleration.

That speedo is in mph, but I doubt he was doing over 220...speedos are incredibly innaccurate at those speeds. For example, EVO tested a TVR Tuscan S on the autobahn...the speedo read 210, the aux. digital speedo said like 187, but the super accurate testing equipment they had verified they were going "merely" 171 mph or something close to that. He probably did hit about 217 mph max on the bike.

That's fast, but bikes don't impress me. You strap a 160 hp engine on a 500 lb bike, of course it's going to be that fast. Now when you get a 2000+ lb car accelerating that fast....THAT impresses me

oh is that all? Only 217?:flipa: :D

I have come to the conclusion that it is a female riding that bike. Why? Because any male with testicles that large shouldn't be comfortably on a motorcycle seat - and I don't know of any rental company that rents out 'Busas.

nice

80 mph in first gear

someone once told me that their bike could do 80 in 1st and I called BS, didn't think it was possible. Now watching this, I'm like :eek:
that is in MPH cause you can see on the inside of the speedo where it has the KPH. And that's crazy, he pegs his speedometer and still gains another 1,200 RPMs. :)

I'm with Heep, I'm a car-man till the day I die,...........Or get a motorbike :finger:

Busas are MAD crazy bikes... and yes, they will do 80mph in first gear w/o an issue. This is why tangie doesn't want one.

I am sure I've seen that vid on my motorcycle forum as an example of a "squid" (think ricer on a bike). What makes me wanna cry is that poor bike in the second pic which isn't even past its break-in period, and some jackass has it d@mn near redlining. :cry: Poor bike.

People do stupid things on bikes... and yes, I have been around enough squids to have seen some in person. My speedo was registering somewhere above 100mph (my bike's speedo waivers when it is overheating) and sure enough some of the @ssholes I was riding with were doing standup wheelies in the dark on an interstate where there was traffic... I just stayed back far enough so I could swerve around them "if" they fell... :rolleyes:

I'd like to ATTEMPT to ride a busa one day many many years from now. I have been riding dirt for about 6 years so it's not like I have no bike experience at all. The first time I rode a bike on the road, it was a 2000 Honda CBR600F4I. It was sooooo much fun, but I still didn't feel very safe on the bike. I would like to own a bike someday, but I've heard so many horror storries about people being killed on bikes and I have also witnessed a crash. A minivan ran a redlight and plowed right into the biker which nearly killed him.
