A viper has a theoretical top speed of about that also.Dazza. Yes, Viper V10 into a motorcycle, and it is ridable... I watched a thing on TV about it and they had someone riding it, however, they didnt go too fast, but boy did it accelerate.Also there is a company over here now that is going to be producting the tomahawk for the public, cant remember the price, but it was getting close to mid 6 figure US$ Edited 29/09/04 06:39 PM by eatV8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also that's top whack! 11,000 rpm in 6th... so your friends 450km/h is I don't believe it would be that hard...I've seen a few turboed bikes and when they hit rev-limit in top they're accelerating pretty damn hard, so smaller rear sproket and a way we go...but 450km/h on a road, I highly doubt...very possible on a salt flat though Dave.

I have no doubt some of the turbo'd Busa's and other bikes with smaller cog swap will hit much higher speed, but on a street riden bike...Salt flat or something of the like would be recommended for high speeds like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some clips here: http://ghostrider.blog.mongenie.com/If you're talking about real speed though, Bonneville speed week has just finished. Check some of the records - 330mph!http://www.scta-bni.org/SCTA-NewWeb/Bonnev...Irecs_bikes.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
