I'm still working and pretty tired so thought I would take a break by watching Youtube videos.. anyway

If you wind this to about 25 secs, the video is titled: "Ferrari 458 Italia vs Suzuki Hayabusa Turbo 298 WHP: car vs bike"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPmHhswbk_g&lis...

yikes

Surely the video is fake in some way?! I'm thinking I missed something obvious with my tiredness?!

Best regards,

M

^^ ETA: The reason it feels fake is because it's so ... cartoon like.

you can see the bike is obviously not standard... look how long that rear swing arm is.

turbo bikes are all fast... suicide fast.. every single one of them!

Looks real to me. Drag racing turbo bike being quicker than a 458 - not a shocker to me.

Bikes do that in a straight line. It's the corners than are difficult at high speed!

I've always had a huge respect for turbo bikes. That looks real to me.

Yep, standard Hayabusa would out drag the Ferrari, I was stumbling back to my hotel in Atlanta once and there were a group of black dudes on similar bikes to this, I got chatting, top guys, one offered me a pillion ride, I politely declined, was pissed, not mental, they were dragging between the lights, watched it for a bit, until the cop car turned and off they went.

That's evident from the title, as a Hayabusa makes 170ish BHP at the wheel.
