no, started off being a productive day...then a couple friends decided lunchtime beers would be a good idea. things went downhill from there. luckily 'someone' drove me and my car home :o only slept for 4 hours :D

Shoulda taken yers wheels for a joyride fill it with LB's and then drop it back at your place. :D

you certainly could of, i was in no condition to do anything about anything :-)

Should have taken the opportunity to pee on the R1.. :D:wai::D

I have to be a bit careful washing my 48cyl 2 stroke Kawasaki, getting the plug leads wet and looking for a missfire can take 2 days!!

Nice pictures. How fast can bikes like that go?
Well i have done 223mph on a 365bhp turbo hayabusa in 2004,( also rode it on the road to bruntingthorpe where we acheived that figure ) , but things have moved on, check this out,.

hayabusas generally aren't my thing but cannot deny that that one is a work of art

I can just imagine threading thru the Bkk traffic on that thing......then the BIB stop you :o

As for an Acceleration test between the green and the blue??? (perhaps when AntR1 recovers).

Having ridden at high speed, its a scarey experience as things tend to close in on you & when you get up there a bit, every km/h raises the adrenaline even further. I like speed but 223mph, 356.8km/h is too fast for me. I remember seeing a video of a chain letting go @ 160mph & the results wern't pretty.

.

Anyway ultra high speeds should only be attempted in controlled situations, perhaps those similar to Sukhumvit Road :o

What kind of tires are rated for 220 MPH?

BTW - a guy on a ZX-12 hit 320 on 5th Gear which he reckoned was a European record. Yeah it was green.

You were doing 357 kph by my calculations. WOW!!!!!

those fast speeds are definitely an experience, sidelines tend to blur a bit and yes things come at you very fast :D but it is a rush that's hard to explain to anyone who hasn't done it.

that jet engine bike, y2k did a run of 400 or 402km or something insane :o i think the strategy at that speed is to close your eyes and hope you don't hit anything :D

Yeah, I think you refer to MTT Y2K that uses jet engine.

^ that's the 1! it was featured on a discovery channel show (top 10 bikes) and that thing is just nuts! jet engine from a helicopter mounted on a bike...what next? jay leno owns 1, said if cars get too close to the exhaust it melts fairings and bumpers hehehehe, a feature we all need on a bike!

I did 250 down in Pattaya on a rent bike. That was plenty. A puncture - a stray dog - they'll be picking up your parts with a whisk broom.

The most impressive thing about dotcom's achievement is that he actually completed this stunt along walking street one friday night :o
