If i remember correctly he changed his front/rear gears (sprockets?) or whatever they may be. which is why if u watch it when he's topped out, check out the road. It's not moving nearly fast enough to be at that speed, especially being that the bike is close to the ground also...

Not beating up on the 'busa, especially a turbo busa'. Believe me.... u don't want to leave me in a garage alone with one...

yeah, I don't think it was right, like hotrod said, setting that wheel down at 140-150 wouldn't be good, it would probably do like a commercial jet on landing....

The speedo doesn't work of the chain and sprockets.

nether does it work off the rear end gears in your car, but if u change that, or your rear tire (height dimension) it can have an effect on your speedo reading.
I'm just going off what I've been told about the bike, i posted this video about 1 year to 2 years ago lol and that's what i was told by a couple people who knew the owner of the bike. they said he did the video just for fun.

Cant watch the video on this comp, but is this a GhostRider video? (Im not talking about the new movie coming out, talking about the Swedish guy who plays with the cops on his Turbo Busa, if I recall correctly it has over 500hp and weighs less than 500lbs.)

I{ definatly remember this video. One of the people that posted in it sid that he had some CRAZY low gears for stunt driving that didnt allow him to go all that fast. I forget how fast they said he an go but it was pretty slow compared to teh speed it shows. Ill see if i cna dig it up.
