A vid for the GSXR600 fans

[riffer]

Ever wondered what would happen if you threw a turbo on your GSXR600?

Wonder no more. You can grab it off my website:

It's about 8MB, so be prepared to wait if you ain't got broadband.

Yeah seen it heaps. But a Busa is pretty much out of most people's league dollars wise.

I thought the gixxer 600 might be more the go. In a couple of years you'll be picking them up for $4-5K, so a turbo option would definitely be affordable.

There's bugger all busa's around so they may stay expensive.

hmm.. I just wonder what the insurance company would say when they asked if it was modified? Would they appreciate just how much of a step up it is from a normally aspirated bike when they're used to car turbos?

[Coldkiwi]

man... i thought that was a gsxr1000 when I saw it at the BBQ!! scary stuff!!

[Darryboy]

Sorry,

Wasn't discounting the video. It's nothing short of awesome.

It was a bit more exciting than the busa vid I saw cos the one I saw didn't do any wheelies :disapint:

There's a number of outrageous busa videos out there. A personal favourite of mine is a Ghostrider one - there is one particular scene that gets me every time. The chase bike is accelerating and gets up to 299km/h indicated. He sits there for a few seconds as you hear this howl and the black busa comes past like he's standing still and it's on one wheel. INSANE!

If you're interested pm me your email addy and I'll send it to you. It's about 20MB. Then again if enough of you want it I could throw it on the website. As I'm the site manager I guess no one will complain too much about the space I'm taking up (fingers crossed - note to oneself - check how much space I've paid for)... :rolleyes:

[Ghost Lemur]

Please throw it on your site, don't think my email can handle 20MB.

Pretty sure it's not in my collection yet. Definitely a must have. I'd have to rate GR as the sickest mofo on two wheels.

[jrandom]

Yes. Please put it up on the website. Pretty please...

[riffer]

Yes. Please put it up on the website. Pretty please...
Tomorrow my beauties, tomorrow...

Im home now with 56k dialup and the files on my work computer.

BTW the site works well on a Compaq Deskpro4000 running Mozilla 7 on Mandrake Linux 9.1

just testing a new box.

Unfortunately my apostrophe key is not working. Must look into that...

And my bloody forks still havent arrived and its two days since they cleared customs.

grrrrrrr.

[aff-man]

bloody hell that bike is quick
Wonder if he can open the throttle fully in any gear without falling off the back???

[Ghost Lemur]

I agree aff-man. Looks like it's near on impossible for him to keep the front down. Beautiful never the less.

[riffer]

Okay, as promised, the GhostRider Hyabusa video, with the 300km/h+ wheelies.

Enjoy:

Oh, its 13MB. 3.5 glorious minutes of madness...

[aff-man]

Holy shit, 5 mins download time was worth it. I wonder what tyres he is runnning on that thing with so much power oozing out of it i find it a really scarey thought. Hahahahahahhahahahahahahha just had a thought imagine being pulled over and the cop trying to ticket you for going 350km/h in a 100 zone. He would think the machine broken wouldn't he???

[Eddieb]

Thats insane! amazing power.

there is another turbo busa movie around, caller NLRTurbo.wmv. This one shows a fully faired bike, doesn't wheelie like the GR bike but shit does it accelererate. A camera is mounted on the tank and shows the tach, speedo (in miles per hour) and the boost guage. The boost guage blocks the view of the speedo past 170 but the needle is getting way past there

Yeah, got that one too. I will put it on the site tomorrow for the others to see.

Absolutely amazing. I guess most of you have seen the one of the normally aspirated busa that does a wheelie from 50 to 140mph. The view from the tank camera on the NLRturbo video is just scary :sweatdrop

Top Gear did a test with a TVR that showed that british speed cameras could not read over something like about 160mph.

I wonder if you have that problem with speed cameras or lasers in this country.

Any of our esteemed law enforcement members care to comment on how fast you would have to go to beat a camera or laser?

Totally theoretical of course, my fizzer aint that fast...
