Getting in the realms of Top Fuel dragster speeds. I hope they have got some serious protection above the cylinders. As i wouldnt want my chest over that engine block if it went bang.

Not exactly road legal, or rideable? Besides, top car drag racers are still quicker.

I'd love to see dynograph results for this thing.

Also, how many times would that need rebuilding?

No way in hell is that going to be reliable to be able to ride it down to the nearest local.

V8's have that nack of producing more power than a 4 cylinder. Rolling Eyes

It isnt meant to be road legal or rideable, its designed for speed.

Incredible machine, and I like the fact that its a 1300, although Im sure it has no hayabusa roots, its still nice that it shares the capacity Laughing
