This is the 200mph plus Triumph Hurricane 1300.
Ok so its not finished yet but it should kick butt! Cool

Its not supposed to exist yet, and there are better artists impressions around, but its food for thought.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

i think it looks much better than the Busa, but i dont think it will hold the credability of a Busa will it? opinions?

Although there's a rumour that appeared on t595.net today that its been cancelled. I don't believe it for a minute. The development is too far down the line now.

But the busa is nicer looking and fast enough. So if it is faster than the busa and you will be buying it, then I will be buying your busa! Very Happy
