I didn't think anything of it, but a crowd gathered around it. So I walk up, it's got lots of shiny stuff, including a skull with it's mouth open on the front. I overhear the following from the guy:
After he finished talking, he started it up and I watched the bike jump sideways, and the frame flex as he gave it power and instantly spun the wheel enough to make white smoke. All this in under a second.
- 540ci motor. For those like myself, who like our measurement systems like we like our cars (European), that's 8.8 litres!
- 700 Horsepower and 700 ft\lb of torque
- 650 ft\lb or more of torque from 2100 to 6100rpm
- 2 forward gears in the transmission. 1st gear pulls to 149mph
- A similar bike did a dyno quarter mile in 5.8s @ more than 230mph
- 1600lbs
- Faster in a straight line than a Hayabusa
- Can't turn
- About $50,000
- Sheered the driveshaft because he put on a tire with too much grip
- 4 Brembo Rotors
