How ironic.... Im watching monster garage right now, they are building a micro car. And using a hayabusa engine to run it and turbo charging it!!!!! Everyone has to watch this!!
1 mph = 1.609344 kph 240mph X 1.609344 equals 386km+ kmh ,..... holly f#$@, mang. i say 240 because he pulled like 1000+ more rpm after his speed stopped moving.Hahahahahhahahah

That is just nuts. You can see how fast he is pulling. And remember videos make things look and feel slower than in real life. I have taken vids in my car that don't look like much, but it is very different when your in the seat. In other words, i just can't imagine how fast this thing really is if you drove it.

I saw the Monster Garage build with the Turbo Hyabusa. They said that "Since the Turbo is so far away from the Motor Its only going to be 285 hp so its equal to driving a 5.0 Mustang". A.) They lost the challange and had to blow it up, and B.) It would not even be close to driving a 5.0 mustang preformance wise or hp wise. The 5.0s only have 210-225.

inthe 1st vid he was going with trafiic and it 70mph, this was through a congested intersection. in the 2nd vid he came off that wheelie at 140 and just thudded on the road? no way! also notice how the speedometer just kidna stops as soon as he gets to 220? and where is the whistle in the 2nd vid?

There was NO WAY he was going 220 mph. P.S. Bike guys don't know what real speed is.
I my opinion people that have not riden a sport bike dont know what fast really is..... Unless you have a car that does lower than 10 seconds. Mustang GTs are slow in my opinion, but they have the potential to become fast. But I would always drive sport cars and sport bikes. You cant say that unless you have owned a sport bike.

I was being sarcastic when I made that comment, but speed is all relative. A 10 sec 1/4 mile is really fast, until you run an 8 sec 1/4. After driving a 4 second car, I will hold my original thought and say that bike guys don't know what real speed is.
What?! What vehicle did you drive that does 4 seconds in the quarter mile. The top fuel funny cars make about 7500hp to get into the 4's... You must drag race professionally if thats the case.

a turbo busa is fast but not that fast. my zx7's speedo drives of the front wheel (as do all my friends bikes) & so if my front end is off the grounf the speed will not go up. this bike did? I if a busa's speedo does drive off the motor I have to guess the gearing was changed. the way the speedo moved you would flip this bike backwards. just my guess & have have had sportbikes since the 80's & owned a gsxr1100 with nos this makes no sense.

To the guys out there that are calling this b.s., I have personally owned a 2003 Turbo Hayabusa and might I add, that within mear seconds I was hittin 100. I put the bike on a dyno and was pushin out 256HP and topped out at 215 before I broke the dyno. Dont flame it till you've ridin it.
