Cool Hayabusa

Check this out. Yes, it is MPH, not KPH. If I didnt see it, I wouldn't believe it.....

Saw this vid a year ago on a CBR forum, everyone was callin BS because of how slow the white lines passed by. Someone explained how you could wire the speedo a certain way to read false mph. I have to agree with this, my guess is that he was only going 100 mph at tops. Cool vid regardless.

Ummm.... listen to the gear changes. Way more than 100mph. Waaaaay more. Hayabusas do 100mph or more in 2nd. Also check out the tach.

Things always look slower on film. Try filming a video inside your car. It will look slow.

No, he was in the neighborhood of 180-195 mph. Stock that bike will run to redline to about 186+. I ride a Kawi ZX12R, Im no stranger to these bikes. However, the speedo reading 220 is BS, they have a nasty error up there.

Looks real to me. Listen to the gears, so that part is real. Then don't pay attention to the lines. But look at a far away tree then keep watching it and look how long it takes for it to be out of the camera's view. Not a whole lot of time there.
