As a teen many years ago, this was one of my favourites video ever on TH-cam, obsessed with acceleration videos. Today, many years later I still enjoy it, the camera quality gives it also something special, nostalgic basically.
I never tire of seeing just how these things accelerate. My heart rate gets to about 140 just watching. I cannot imagine what it is like to actually do it.
ClaudiaShifferLA; yup, I pilot a Busa too, and the stock brakes are really as good as they're shown in this vid... The Busa pilot in this vid is not using ABS I'm sure, because the model Busa he's piloting didn't come with ABS.
Busas always amaze me. My modded Bandit 1200 tops out around 240-250 kmh. This guy does that leisurely in 4th gear, then briskly accelerates to and indicated 310 plus KPH. Sweet!
They are insane. I have a 2004 Hayabusa. I've never before felt G-forces from accelerating on a vehicle. It makes my camaro feel like a snail in comparison.
+Wiktor Krämer First time ride it quite slow. It's good because a 1340cc engine will have a much longer life than a 125cc engine if you ride the same speed in the beginning.
+Wiktor Krämer NO ! , please start out on a 250 cc, its very dangerous , plus you are comparing a bicycle to a motorcycle. NO!!!! , please 250cc for the people on the roads sake!, you can kill someone, ITS A LOADED GUN!
@JakeVexx21 Totally agree. In Germany there are no speed limits on German Autobahn and when a car is approaching with 200 km/h or faster while you're driving 130km/h it's really difficult to estimate the other driver's speed. A motorcycle's silhouette is even thinner, and therefore it's speed is even more difficult to estimate. But this looks to me more like France or Spain, where speed is limited to 130 km/h. No one there will expect someone to drive with the speed of 280 km/h.
This video was stolen by another person. It was filmed by my father. We live in Italy, near by Milano. I want to say thank you for all your comments; this video is old, but my father still watch it every single day and is proud of himself. THANK YOU SO MUCH
This post is more subdued. There is some humor in the beginning, but it quickly fades into a confusing quiz show format. It must be an incomplete post. I'll await the second half of the post. Keep going! You're doing great!
Are you really justified in tooting your horn at someone because they change lanes in front of you at 250kmh? How the fuck was he supposed to see you coming?
djtutty76 agreed, but he might have been a bit to much "in the moment". and for his own sake, I do hope he was, and just not thinking of other things X) peace.
djtutty76 i think this is recorded in germany so yes, he is justified because basically you have sections where you can drive as fast as you want...and 250 isn't even fast on those roads trust me and 250 is not a speed where you "pop out of nowhere". The driver just missjudged the bikers speed, AND the biker really wasn't that far away that you can say "he came to close to fast" I have the feeling that the guy in the car really just glanced at his mirror and switched lanes without thinking about it . If you consider my average traveling speed is 220-230, and that I still get overtaken by axpromitaly 2 cars a minute, 250 really is nothing special. PS: I'm not a biker.
I saw one of these accelerate out of a Suzuki dealership once. It's in downtown with a pretty busy highway running past. He started at one end of the lot, and had to be doing 100+ when he hit the highway. Scared the shit of of me. Every time I see one it makes my heart stop a little. Super cool though.
Oh boy, more commentary on who I must be! This is juicy, and, a new noun! This time, it is "possum." What a creative use of nouns! I am going to give you a pat on your back. Just imagine me patting your back. Doesn't it feel great? Keep continuing to evade the topic with more insults and non sequiturs. I'll sit back and eagerly wait for more.
como debe comer nafta el bicho este... yendo en 1ra llega a 120km/h !!! es un monstruo esta maquina!! si te haces el loco, terrible palaso te pegas, nisiquiera te das cuenta de que te moriste!
Whoa, nelly! I give that comment an 8 out of 10! Good job! That actually made me chuckle. That would have been a 9 had you not continued to try to break through the stage, but we're working on it! We can do this! Try again!
Had a really awesome and close friend of mine die on his sports bike. He was speeding for no reason and riding like hell. It sucks because not only was he extremely young, but this kid would take a bullet for anyone; thee most respectable, loyal and amazing kid you'll ever meet. He left his family and friends behind still grieving till this day. No reason to ride wreckless and put your life and other's life at risk. Just the other day, a speeding bike t-boned and killed an innocent driver...
Big fake !! The bike says 320 km but passing other cars/busses (who are driving maybe 120 km, a difference of 200 km/hr) with that low speed... He's driving real maybe 150/160 km/hr, not faster !
The white lines, length of the line on the German autobahn is 6 meters, the distance between them is 12 meters. If you count 10 lines it's 180meters he did in 2 seconds (from 1.47 to 1.49). By that he does 900m every 10 seconds. 5.4km every minute. 60minutes would mean 324km/h. The passing of the cars is just the camera angle, nothing more :) That is just roughly calculated, not really accurate, but it is still over 300.
Fuck that's awesome in a scary sort of way dude is tickling 190 mph and without getting fifth gear. There is a point when breaking the laws of the road is daring, but this is getting into the laws of physics...
...and we're still waiting for some pearls of your wisdom on the subject of forced grammar. Please enlighten us oh great one. Your comments just oooze intelligent insights...!
@bierowns Im pretty sure that car was doing what we call "passing". Its what normal speed cars do to go safely around others. This guy was haulin it at 140mph...
While the motorcyclist was riding at around 160MPH after exiting a curve, the minivan at 1:00 moved into the left lane to pass a vehicle in the right lane. With the motorcyclist's high speed, the minivan driver probably properly completely a mirror and then head check. During the head check, the motorcycle likely became visible in the mirror, which had already been glanced at. I am so glad this video didn't have the word "death" at the end, because that's what could have happened in an instant.
show the ball this video, I liked muito.Quando I grow up I want to have a bike that only lack three years for me to complete my 18 years and have such a beautiful thing. Hugs to you who made this video, and gets Des.
Bet all those folks he's passing think 'wow this dude must really have to shit bad or something that he's in such a hurry!'. Oh, and that digital gear indicator display reminds me of the '79 Suzuki GS750 I had many many years back. It came stock with that feature, just in a much smaller package.
There’s another one similar to this, but the interstate/“other” (not sure where this was filmed, the speedometer is in km/h) is significantly more crowded and the driver never lets up. It’s pretty intense.
@ 1:00 is the reason why you should go for ABS if you want to start to drive like that on public roads! But good reaction and braking technique displayed! :)
Mi chiamo Simona e sono di Bergamo. Questo video lo giró mio padre nel 2010, solo che questo tizio gli ha “rubato” il video, prendendosi i meriti. Io ho fatto moltissimi giri con mio padre su questa belva, quante emozioni😍 sei sempre il migliore papà😍😍🔝🔝🔝
@ghoul64 --As a bike rider (and hot rodder) myself I LOVE speed, but not at the risk of injuring others. Like many of you I've lost too many friends and family to biking accidents so I'm glad this guy didn't get hurt (or hurt someone else), but he shouldn't be doing this on public roads.
@altern8ive I agree with you here. This is how accidents happen. but I must say that the bike is incredible but should only be enjoyed at a track...not on a highway.
i did 190 mph on mine what i thought was great was so smooth and efortless wicked bike im sure someone will shott me down but just for what i got great bike never missed a beat or ever let me down always done what i asked it to within my capabilites and i can ride. Stay upright guys.
When riding this sort of bike, do you have to compensate for wind/gusts? Always wanted to get a motorbike but feel they're too unpredictable in certain weather conditions. Might still get one anyway at some point though.
@GTXsonstnix Japanese bike manufacturers had a gentleman's agreement that bikes would be limited to 186mph. To do this Suzuki calculates the speed in 6th gear from the rpms and then cuts power at a certain value. To get around this you keep it in 5th and put a smile on. You see he was doing 320 kph in 5th which I believe is faster than 186 mph.
Anger and disappointment! Good emotions to have in the drama you're trying to write. Try to incorporate it with the owl idea I suggested. Hopefully this helps.
exactly!... my friend offered me to ride his ducatti 848 and i was as gentle with the gas as i could and i almost shit my pants! God that thing takes off fast!
Not everyone who owns one of these bikes rides them like this. I have the exact same bike. I just like a bike with a lot of power in reserve, which can cover big distances easily and in relative comfort, and easily keep you at the front of the queue!
A quick search on youtube will show you that bikes, even 600's, will out accelerate most cars - even Lamborghini's. Power to weight ratio plays a huge part. While the lambo may have significantly more horsepower, it also weighs a large amount more as well. The lambo will have a better top speed but the bike can do 0-100mph much faster.
Wow I didn't even know my 2011 busa had gears higher than 3rd. My momma told me never to ride it in any gear higher than 2nd, but I don't tell her I sometimes shift it into 3rd. ;) and that's only if I have the drive mode (S-DMS) selector in "C"
I have another question for you, If you get two olympic sprinters (both can achieve similar times over 200 metres) and have one of the sprinters pull a 250 pound weight(its on wheels) behind them and race them against the other sprinter who has to pull no weight. Which sprinter would win? I know it's an odd question but i'm just curious to see what you think.

Sameeeee
I love how his left blinker was on the entire time

I never tire of seeing just how these things accelerate. My heart rate gets to about 140 just watching. I cannot imagine what it is like to actually do it.
Amazing acceleration...nop, amazing brakes!!! in 2 seconds go from 280 to 160!
ClaudiaShifferLA; yup, I pilot a Busa too, and the stock brakes are really as good as they're shown in this vid... The Busa pilot in this vid is not using ABS I'm sure, because the model Busa he's piloting didn't come with ABS.
omg, you're right!

Sweet!
He started at 3:14pm and arrived at 2:57pm.
bernuga i told him NOT to hit 88mph...i told him....
At around 2:30 you can see him reaching the speed of time. Notice the purple interdimensional tears.
@Gurnoor thind no its not dumbo the elephant
I've hit 250kph on a straight road and thought it was quick, this guy is doing corners at 250, good shit mate.
They are insane. I have a 2004 Hayabusa. I've never before felt G-forces from accelerating on a vehicle. It makes my camaro feel like a snail in comparison.
Hell yeah bud , only comparison is hypercars
I found it the legendary busa video from the 2000's
@VN1700Nomad Agreed, I also ride a Hyabusa & it's really hard to find roads straight enough (In Taiwan) to allow decent speeds.
LOVE THAT SOUND OF HAYABUSA....AND THE SPEEED..
Is this a good option for my first bike? I'm 16 but I rode bicycles my whole life.
Turbo hayabusa and kawasaki h2 are good bikes for the beginners :)
+Wiktor Krämer First time ride it quite slow. It's good because a 1340cc engine will have a much longer life than a 125cc engine if you ride the same speed in the beginning.

At 1.00 minute I braced myself for that car pulling across
When he changes to second gear at 140km/h I'm changing to six gear in mine :(
I'm not even have that much speed in my bike
This post is more subdued. There is some humor in the beginning, but it quickly fades into a confusing quiz show format. It must be an incomplete post. I'll await the second half of the post. Keep going! You're doing great!
My first bike was a hayabusa.. Im still here to this day.. 3 years of riding it.. its not the bike, its the driver
Man. you here this?
This is so fucking awesome

Please dont drive so fast, we need your organs without damage, your brains we do not need ;-)
Quando vuoi fare il grande con la tua jeep a 160km/h, e ti suona l'Ayabusa che non gli fai mettere la 4a
ESATTO!!!

You would better use your head, not horn.....
Look at the gas gauge in the beginning. Its past full, then look at it after only 4 min of riding 😨
Well he did do 10k rpms for a good amount
That's awesome how it tells you what gear you're in

going so fast, 14 years later, still the fastest
ikr
That is so beast I might be too scared to ever drive one :p
Dude that's really fast but you seem in control
love how the two gauges move in unison at 1:40 thats power
@ about 2:00 i got scared like slow down dude, then @ about 3:20 when the other bike passed him i was like wtf you better keep up bro
Amazing bike and no vibration when accelerating
@altern8ive I agree with you here. This is how accidents happen. but I must say that the bike is incredible but should only be enjoyed at a track...not on a highway.
hello, I have one question. where did you film this, which road were you on?
ps. i like your motor xd
i did 190 mph on mine what i thought was great was so smooth and efortless wicked bike im sure someone will shott me down but just for what i got great bike never missed a beat or ever let me down always done what i asked it to within my capabilites and i can ride. Stay upright guys.
Sometimes I think it's careless to drive so fast. Then I grow envious thinking about how fucking quickly you get to your destinations.
When riding this sort of bike, do you have to compensate for wind/gusts? Always wanted to get a motorbike but feel they're too unpredictable in certain weather conditions. Might still get one anyway at some point though.
this guy has a death wish.
regardless nice acceleration and crazy video!
@GTXsonstnix Japanese bike manufacturers had a gentleman's agreement that bikes would be limited to 186mph.

Nice use of that Rev Limiter, My friend! What Is the Factory RPM The limiter is Set at on a Busa?
Brakes are amazing !!!
Anger and disappointment! Good emotions to have in the drama you're trying to write. Try to incorporate it with the owl idea I suggested. Hopefully this helps.
My adrenaline is rising while I'm watching xD
I wonder how does that guy feel...
I love my 2011 hayabusa wit the new and improved 1340 cc yeah baby :)
exactly!... my friend offered me to ride his ducatti 848 and i was as gentle with the gas as i could and i almost shit my pants! God that thing takes off fast!
Faster and faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death 😎
watching this made my heart race this bike is extremely bad ass
That's really smart; wish people would do that here.
Dude travelled 4 miles in less than five minutes.
Woah, that was close at 1.00
Gotta watch out, tempting fate there, although I do enjoy the video
i was waiting for him to "take off" like fly away
Sure, you get where you're going faster.
But GOD DAMN I think it feels like you've been driving for 3 days after a one hour ride like this.
Not everyone who owns one of these bikes rides them like this. I have the exact same bike. I just like a bike with a lot of power in reserve, which can cover big distances easily and in relative comfort, and easily keep you at the front of the queue!
That's what happens when you own a Hayabusa and suddenly you realise you are late for lunch! =P
was on the edge of my chair the whole time just waiting for the road to clear each time :)
Nice video mate :) where can we supply the digital gear display?
A quick search on youtube will show you that bikes, even 600's, will out accelerate most cars - even Lamborghini's. Power to weight ratio plays a huge part. While the lambo may have significantly more horsepower, it also weighs a large amount more as well. The lambo will have a better top speed but the bike can do 0-100mph much faster.

I recommend an upgrade to the F-1 rocket engine developed by Rocketdyne and used in the Saturn V.
Just watching this gave me an adrenalin rush!!
I have another question for you, If you get two olympic sprinters (both can achieve similar times over 200 metres) and have one of the sprinters pull a 250 pound weight(its on wheels) behind them and race them against the other sprinter who has to pull no weight.
Which sprinter would win?
I know it's an odd question but i'm just curious to see what you think.
I never said that. You clearly need to quell your intense desire to fight with people at every waking moment.
jesus christ he almost dies when that van cuts out in front of him!!! man wtf at the 1:00 minute mark it was nuts!!!!!
@azaas @azaas not in greece, its in portugal, in S.Brás, check the road plates as he leaves the highway
@merkvila100 I believe that's Portugal. At 3:51 you can see "Faro" (portuguese city) written in the sign.
