The Fastest Bike Vid I have seen!!!!

[WizardofNos]

Hi Guys This is my fav Bike vid.. have looked back thru loads of post's and cant see it anywere.

Please accept my appoligies if its not new to you!!

Deffo worth a look tho..
dont know anything about it appart from

He is off the clock at 220mph!!!???

Nice wheelie, but I'll put money on that speedo being fake. The scenery isn;t going past anywhere near fast enough. At 200mph he passes a side-road, it crawls by when it should be a blur.

At the end of the run, the rev counter starts falling before the speedo does - yeah right . Watch when it gets down to 100mph. The scenery is dragging by. If that's 100mph I'll eat my hat.

Easily done with a resistor in line on the speedo feed wire.

ive seen that before and apparantly it was a turbo busa. i dont see why it cant do 220 indicated if it has a turbo fitted. however i do agree on the slip roads going by slowly it appears.
still good vid tho

It is in 6th gear when it tops out, but it does seem to accelerate stupidly quickly - even at 150mph+

[White Noise]

TBH if the bike is going 100 mph

100 mph = 44.704 metres/second

at about 100 mph approx 3 lines pass in a second

therefore approx 15 metres for each white line and gap between each white line, seems a little to far for me

Probably gone down a tooth or two on the front sprocket and up a tooth or two on the rear sprocket? I belive that would *fook* your speedo.

Yeah true...I put the speedo from my mountain bike on my mini motto and it rekond I was doing 65!! on a standard minimoto!......Coz of the difference in wheel size.

[numark1]

Thats so fake. At 100 hes like walking pace.

Been discussed many times.

Downgearing changes speedo display.

[craigs23]

Seems insane - but quite realistic as well - the speedo hits its stop when the tacho is reaches around 10k, and then the speedo comes back down after the tacho has passed this mark (hence the lag when the rider throttles back) - the bike's exceeded its indicated 220 and still pulling.

Also the thing about the distance in lines is impossible to measure - looks like it's shot on an American road where the road markings are different. Besides, even in this country, the length of road markings and the distance they are apart changes depending on the road conditions/hazards.

Has anyone noticed how much slower a tank cam looks than how it is in real life? Check out some tank/helmet cams on Isle of Man TT DVDs to see the difference.

[WizardofNos]

as we're semi-on the topic of speedos etc..

just how accurate are digital speedos on modern sportsbikes? my mate in his car reckons he was going 10mph faster (accoring to his speedo) than me but from my point of view i was catching him up even though my speedo said i was going 10mph slower. I know cars overread like hell but i was wondering about modern digital speedos.

[Chriss]

It's more precise, but no more accurate.
