This bike is just plain sick. The guy has some good *** driving skills to.

Yes, the bike is fast. Driving skills - no, any decent driver can wheelie up and down like that at speed...especially on a turbo bike. IMO, he's a squirrel for two reasons: 1) his speedo is in km/h and 2) the way with which he passes the trucks and cars. I'm not trying to be a ***** but he's either going to kill himself or someone else.

 

Wow I want one

 

OMFG...i coudlnt think of a better place to open it up than the countryside.

 

So you are saying when he was flying around that corner doing about 185MPH or 290+KPH but he has no skills? Wheeling something with that much power is easy to do but...... It is also easier to mess up with during a wheelie. What is the way he is passing cars and trucks that makes him a bad driver??? If you think you can do that go find a turbo 1000cc crotchrocket and film yourself doin it. Alrighty then!!!

 

I use to have a GSXR750 and 1100 and he lifted the wheel up slightly at speed...easy. If you had a bike of that size and rode for a while, you would feel the same way. I'm sorry you don't.

I can show you pictures of our Street Bike Shootout bike CARRYING the wheel an 1/8th mile at over 160mph...NOT just popping it up and down. I would like to see this part of him going AROUND a corner at 185. I'm sorry to say - there isn't one. Any time a slight curves comes up his wheel is up and down before the few slight curves he encounters. At one point he is coming out of a curve and pops up at a decent speed. ..not 185mph though.

 

When he passes the one car the KPH is over 290 which is in between 180 and 190 MPH. I used to own 2 Rockets . A GSX 750 or Katana 750 and GSXR 1000. I used to ride wheelies, do stoppies or (Endos), burn outs. You act like I have never riden a day in my life. Is what I am saying is that the bike has some major power. If some average person just jumps on it and tries to do a wheelie I will bet money he flips it over. You know from being tight on the throttle, or not being loose.

 

They surely will !

 

That is why I say he has driving skills. I posted it because the bike is freakin sick man. Have you seen the Twin turbo Hayabusa?

 

The guy just came off as a goon in my book. He lifted the tire everytime he shifted over 6K. I have seen a couple of videos of turbo busas, and they seem to be able to keep the front tire on the ground for the most part. Kind of annoying tring to watch a video and the perspective changing everytime he shifts.

Ever been on a bike at 185?... at 130 it trys to suck you off the damn bike, at 185 you can feel your helmet starting get sucked off your head, and going around corners... it's the most nerve racking expierence...
And wheelies are just as bad.. it's not a very fun expierience having a bike wheelie in 6th gear when you just wanna pass someone.. Bikes take ALOT of skill to ride correctly and you have to have some serious skill to ride a liter bike much less turbo'd liter bike..

I will agree that he's wreckless and endangering people in the public, but that rider has some skill.

 

Turbo'd busa's wiegh alot more.. and the swingarm is usually extended a good 6-8 inches. You've obviously never been on a been on a modded bike that has over 200whp... a regular liter bike will wheelie past 6k if you're not sitting correctly. You HAVE to lay down on the tank and hold the damn bike down.. It's not just riding.. Liter bikes you have to fight them and take control of them before they take control of you...

Don't knock it til you've done it...

 

He is doing wheelies on purpose. He can keep it down if he wants. He is showing that the bike can pop a wheelie at high R's. That is just IMO. Guess I don't have the same prespective as you huh?

 

I agree.. the guy OBVIOUSLY has some skill..

 

i like how his speedo goes from 100 to 115 to 135-in huge increments...thats nuts

 

ill blow his *** away with my z

 

i couldnt pay attention to any of the video, that stupid spot/stain on the wind visor thing was pissing me off so much...

 

anyway, who cares if the driver has any skill what so ever. the bike is absolute piece of artwork. itd be a real shame and a real waste to anyone crash a bike like that. plus i think he is in a foreign country, notice the liscence plates (might explain the speedo in kmph.

 

The bike is sweet. me like.

 

My dial up sucks, but a turbo bike is not that easy to ride. I'm assuming the this bike was not lowered and it was standard length witch would make it easy to wheelie at just about any speed but of couse you would need skill. I wish there were some turbo bikes in my area(MASS) i'm sick of racing cars.
