Default Hayabusa over 200 mph

well me and my friend are having an argument over this video not that I have ever been gone anything close to 200mph but it just doesn't seem the guy is going that fast. maybe it is just because it is a video so it is hard to judge the speed. What do you guys think?

There are Hayabusas pushing ~600hp, so w/o even seeing the video, YES. Is the speedo reading in kph? Gearing, gearing, gearing.

Again, I still haven't seen the video, firewall at work.

I had a tank mount on my Yammie on the way up to Montreal F1 . I was doing 165 when I passed two cop cars in the median Anyway, judging by my video, you would never have guessed that I was going that fast. Video's do a really bad job representing speed.

Oh BTW, the cop cars did nothing, they must've thought it wasn't worth the effort to chase. I promptly sold my bike 3 weeks later. Those things are just asking for trouble if you don't have a racetrack near by to let out steam.

Hyabusa is capable of speeds close to if not 200 mph stock...

Yeah, but just like the S2000, it will take AllDay to get there, when stock anyway.

As freq said, there are some 400+ HP hyabusa's out there. In fact I have some of the videos on my HDD. They are very fast bikes especially when modded. Judging by that video, there is no way that bike is stock because of how hard it pulls all the way from 0-210+

Definatly real.

There was one at a local dragstrip that was running in the high 8's....and he drove it to the track and home. I don't know what he had done to it except a real long rear swing arm (I think thats the right term for it) and a bottle of nitrous.

As far as the video goes, that guy is nut....doing a wheelie from 50-140 mph. craziness.

*edit* i checked the 1/4 mile times of them stock, they run low 10's (10.3 is what i saw)

I'm not much of a wheelie rider but it looks far fetched...
