If you want to see a small video of a really and truly fast bike, try this. This Busa would eat the RC51 for lunch.

Damn! My poor old Mean Streak barely putts along at 110.
Dammit, I have been riding since 1962, and that clip made my eyes bug out, and feel all kinds of strange. Thanks for the link!
*shudder*
That is cool!!!
Why didn't the lane stripes blur?
who tweaked that one?
I see Yoshi and others like to geek them up.
I've been out of hotbikes since GS-1100RS and GPZ days (broke my cherry on an H2...I'm old...lol)
Are all these 1300s?....I remember the KZ 1300...clumsy beast late 70s
I don't think I ever did over 175 or so on my triple bored GPZ with kunis, NO2 and yoshi handblown pipes etc..
My original H2 was a 3 into 3 exhaust...Denco....uncapped...sounded like an battalion of chainsaws.
I always wanted to be Kenny Roberts or Terry Vance....or Russ Collins (huge stones).
We had a young fellow killed here recently on one of these....they said he was doing around 180 when he left the highway (and this planet)
Merry Christmas!
how many horsies do these tweaked ones do?
No way.....that guy is not doing 210+. I have done 150 in a BMW 528i going downhill. The speedometer is fixed.
That was a kooky video. He wheelied from 65 to 135 MPH. I used to be young and immortal myself. I could wheelie my 1985 CR500R for miles, often until the front wheel stopped spinning, or even reversed. I could even wheelie with one hand, or my knees on the seat. That CR would go maybe 85 flat out, being a dirt bike and all, but most of my wheelying was under 70 ...
Even being the manly-man that I am, I am not sure I want to wheelie to 135 or go 220MPH on a state highway.
HOLY SH!T!!!
Nice acceleration...
