    I checked the 'busa out at work, that is one wicked bike. Those wheelstands "look" effortless. My bike's fairly quick but looks positively wimpy in comparison.

    Kee-rist, at that speed I'd be worried about the wind catching under the bike and sending me looping into next week

    I think it was faster than 200mph (320kmh) because you can see the speedo on the chase bike reaading 294kmh and that busa flys past...... zzzzzzzzzooooooooooooommmmmmmmm im thinking 350kmh

    Don't quite know about 200mph wheelies but even at 150+ it's still not a problem getting wind under the bike. Sidewinds though . . :confused2

    Officially 299km/h (186mph).

    Unofficially, if they've pushed the motor to 499hp, they've probably got rid of the speed limiter too. And geared them differently too.

    I'd say no reason why they couldn't do 350km/h given the right road and conditions - Maybe more.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    My bike makes less than half what those things make and I've been clocked at 312K at Pukekohe and it was still accelerating real hard so I'd say well in excess of 350K if you could get it to the ground, and find a bit of road long enough.

    Just curious Speedpro, but how did you get 312km/h out of an MB100?

    You have to keep the corner speed up going into the back straight and then sling shot past another rider going into the kink. The MB was doing about 27,000rpm by my calculations.
