Right click. Save target as. Make sure you have Windows Media Player or something and an audio card. Oh, and some time for the 22.1 MB file to download. Something ya don't want to miss watching.

I don't know where the video was shot. I'll do some searching and try and get some pics of that beast. IIRC, there were some floating around of the bike being built.

Busa!!!!!

is his top numbers on his speedo in KM?
going through the underpasses and along the concrete barrier, the shadows didn't seem to be moving at 100+ MPH, 60-70 seems more accurate.

That's some insane stuff. Not for the faint of heart for sure.

While it looks like the the outer ring is MPH and the inner is KPH ( the inner ring goes to 3 digits around 65) The closure rate when he trurns left in side street traffic is not much. The speedo at one point said he was doing 85 but the closure rate to the other cars NOT on a freeway was like 20 mph max... So it looks more like he was doing 60 or so when the speedo said 85. The closure rate on the highway when he was doing 180 or more wasnt near fast enough... I have driven my truck for short bursts at 140 and the reason they are short is you run out of room REAL quick when you are going 2x-3x the speed of the average driver also on the road. If he were doing 180-190 as the speedo indicated he would have been closing on the other cars at OVER 100 mph ...

Cool video - The perspective was just off a little
And you dont hear many Cycles make the turbo squeak when they shift - That was cool

can't be true, unless everyone around there goes 60 on the streets then its fake. His speedo said around 90 at one point and the ford probe next to him was going the same and at one time faster. I'm rasing the B.S FLAG HERE! It may be a fast bike, but its not what it seems!

An on-going debate we, between us friends, have is whether it is in KPH or MPH. Confusing to say the least,

ummm, I think its real, my friend has a TL1000R that is nowhere near that 'Busa, but still fast as f*ck and blows my L into last week. Is there anything on the road that's faster than that bike? Porsche 959 maybe???

Im not saying if the video is "off" or not. All I know is that one of my best friends has a Turbo Busa with 12 lbs max boost and hes topping out at 285 hp. Ive ridden it and its absolutly SICK. It makes my Blackbird look foolish. A TL1000R isnt even in the same catagory as a Blackbird or a Hayabusa or a ZX-12. Here is a timeslip from our last drag. Im the "99 XX" and hes the "Turbo Busa" Take note of the trap speed. 154 in the 1/4 with 12lbs of boost. I think the guy in that video has like 18 or something. Not my best time but OK for me.
