Mabey I am a fool but, He put it down before 100.
What I want to know is where the camera was mounted.
Still a very cool video.

Those are great. Thanks for the links. Does anyone know where to find the one with the Kid in the Ferrari F50 doing 210 MPH down the highway. I heard that one is out floating on the internet. Its a long clip too. devil

Well, I hate to put doubt in anyones mind...but..
..the guys on the bike forums make jokes about making those videos with the bigger sprockets on the back.
If you look at the video, he passes a car at 130MPH+...not too quickly I might add...that car must have been doin' 110 MPH...also, I've been 150MPH on a bike...it didn't look like that...
If he was going that fast in that area, I would he has a suicide wish...if a car pulls out in front of you at 150MPH...not much you can do abot it...if you know what I mean.

I havent seen the video of that yet but can comment about how far off bike speedos are My gsxr is off by 15 mph at 140 and gets worse even faster my bike wil top out at 173 but the speedo will read 198.
I have done wheelies standing up at 95-100 and it takes some juevos to do it at that speed landings can get rough or hard.
