    Lol, I wish he had his dyno charts up on his auction. Would like to see a actual figure, 400 just sounds to mainstream...

    I run my speed trials on a different system in the car.

    It is timed by '0 to wife goes shitty'. I am unsure if I hold the NZ record.

    It may depend on which pocket on her handbag that your balls are situated in.... I think you are fucked either way

    Seems like alot of people associate turbo bikes with the Ghost-Rider. Probably because he was one of the originals to post up footage of himself doing 200mph wheelies and shit. The guy has stones, no doubt but, there is no way I could ever ride the way he does. Just looking at that video is scary enough lol

    The guy is a fucking cunt, on a motorcycle.

    Lots of people believe he will end up as a red smear on the Autobahn or similar, I dunno about that, but he is easy to find so I don't know how he isn't in jail.

    I have removed the anchor from the rear of mine for the cliffhanger sprints. Maybe ill get into the 200hundy club. Hoping it will be close if it doesn't.

    Still running his bike shop in Germany (might have been neighboring country come to think of it), last I read anything about him.

    Several rumors were abound of his demise, right back when the vids first came out.

    If I'm not mistaken there was a copycat who had a fatal crash, AFAIK Patrik Furstenhoff (the real Ghost Rider) is still alive.

    I thought Ghostrider 6.66 had been released already? I got 1 - 5 a couple of years ago off the piratebay. Possibly not the best riding video to watch if your still learning to ride lol.

    Good luck at the cliffhanger mossy. Hopefully you can break 200mph.
    Hopefully I will make it down next year, with a extra 150hp or so strapped to the bike...

    Mine is ready for cliffhanger sprints. Made some mirror cap off covers. Im not sure what difference the removal would make to the flying speeds if any at all.

    Im wondering if I should put 50 pounds in the tires???

    You'd be a braver man than me. I like a bit of tyre spin for fun...Tyre spin at 250+kph=not fun!

    So 49pounds would be better?

    Im running 40 on the road now on the bridg20s which isn't normal for me as I always ran high 20s low 30s on other tyres in the past.
