Looks like the Busa' might finally have meet it's match. From what I've been reading it's around the 200hp mark (at the crank), not entirely sure of the looks, but hey at the speeds it would go no one will see ya anyway. Limited to 186mph, aero's look good for 200mph though.

yeah it maybe a little on the unattractive side, but hey how many people are going to give you grief on a 9 second bike? (gotta be pretty close)

I remember hearing the same thing said about the Hayabusa but once it showed it could deliver what was promised the looks didn't seem to matter too much. I guess time will tell with this one as well.

I would race that round Manfield not to bad as long as it handles the esses full lock sideways trying to fight it from highsiding you would be fun then you hit the back straight and drag everyone off you would be a legend

10$ says no one could even use half that bikes potential unless you are a decent rider who knows who they are.

that bike has more potential than most have ability dont even bother questioning it.
