SIAL 
Wasn't it concluded last time around that this was fake? The scenery doesn't seem to move quickly enough given the indicated speed on the speedo.

I saw a turbo'd Busa on men & motors about 6 months ago - from what I recall it left a std Busa for dead and got up to about 220mph with around 2,000 revs to go!
Needs a serious chain and does about 15mpg

Having raced at Elvington on the drag strip alongside bikes, i can tell you they will be pulling wheelies at those speeds.
I have seen an indicated 115mph on my speedo, with a bike pulling away from me, on one fecking wheel
, they are nutters.
If you want to see some of this kind of stuff, go to Elvington this sunday, there are loads of bikes and cars usually, including turbo hyabusas.
You need to see them to believe them, honestly!
Watch some of the videos off here, amazing!!, and insane!!

Yepo showed it to our resident bike loon and he called fake. I saw a video of him on a Blade doing the Autobahn's at around 150MPH and that looked quicker, wrt road markings etc.
Good entertainment tho!

the sceneray didnt seem as if it was going past fast enough for that speed compared to stuff I seen inside of cockpit of mclaren or some such doing that speed.
Still very fast bike - I prefer being surrounded by steel and four wheels thankss! :-)

This video is a fake, and SIAL but we'll ignore that for now. There is a much better video out there of a 'busa turbo, that is certainly real.
Have a look at the lines on this one going a supposed 60mph slower.
