@mark28105 the busa its my fav bike and its the one im gonna buy, but just the sound of this one... the best thing would be the busa with this sound, hehe
@FallenRev2 If you're really going to buy one, all I can say is be really careful with throttle control cause even if it's not turbo charged, like any high powered liter bike it will throw you right off. Have fun and ride safe : )
What a great way to get some more milk for my coffee and get back before the commercials are finished. U Americans, u think of everything. God Bless America. You need it.
Rolls Royce owns the facility that builds the engine but that plant is in Indianapolis, Indiana, which is not in Britain, also, that engine was designed and developed by the Allison Motor company, which was owned by GM before being sold to RR. But we shouldn't let a few facts get in the way of typical British pompousness.
where does this figure come from?I know they have tested its speed at 242 mph. Its high speed rollon is not in dispute. However most people who have tested it describe its 0-60 characteristics as an absolute pig (my words in summary)
bet it's high 11's on a good day.
in fact in a real world urban environment I would bet a clapped out ninja 250 scored off craigslist for 2 weeks of burger flipping money would embarrass it.
@palestineoliver yeah, I'm sure your dumbass got your measurements confused, ig you mean 310kmh not mph. But you know always good to have a motorcycle expert hanging around that knows EVERYTHING about motorcycles. Don't anybody get anything wrong about any bike or this motorcycle nazi will try to blow you apart with his made up statistics and idiotic prices.
@dudemanguyperson42 yeah as 310km/h is more or less the well known top end of a stock busa and he's not hiding the fact he's an international user I think he meant km. Most of what he said in criticism of this impractical but amazing machine is dead on. The market for this thing is posers showing off hardware- not some throttle twisting speed junkie who lives for the thrill of going fast every day.
@Chilibe They did. The most successful was made by Chrysler in the 60's but it only got as far as a handful of functional concept cars and none were sold to the public.
@u2slow223 you could save up over half a million and buy a mosler mt900gtr xx (car) when they come out:D lol they got one on a track to get over 375mph:P apparently they're supposed to go 305 stock but hey, we'll see
@dudemanguyperson42 maybe my concept of money is off but if im spending that much the people that make it should give me at least 2 get out of jail cards with it (only valid for speeding/wreckless driving of course)
it doesn't actually use jet power thrust to work, it transfers turbine motion to the transmission which turns the wheels, not like an airplane where it blasts a jet flame from the turbine to the rear.
Its the world's fastest bike with the top speed achievable of 256mph while that of fastest piston bike is hayabhusa with top speed of 196mph. This is a mean machine with handling issues. :)
these bikes are straight up retarded. and not in a good way. id like to see one of these keep up with me on the canyons on my sv650 that cost me $2500. Thats 75 times less money and Ill smoke that helicoptor piece of shit
@freak151 the Dodge Tomahawk has only 500HP and goes 420mph top speed, why would you want 600HP for? just 1 fuck up and you'd pretty much be a grease spot on the road or on someones car. or if you even reached 250+mph the wind would sweep you off the bike if you sat up.
@borntorazehell777 dodge tomahawk can't reach 420mph :D the top speed is unknown. it's theoretical speed is 300 mph(bugatti veyron theoretical top speed is 350mph but it can only manage 267mph). and a dodge tomahawk weighs +-640 kilogram, a hayabusa +-250 kg so the horse power per ton is much higer on a busa. the hayabusa is very aerodynamic and a dodge tomahawk not even close
@borntorazehell777 do you even know anything about cars/bikes? it's a concept vehicle(not a bike because it has 4 wheels), it's not road legal, it can't turn and clearly you don't know anything about concept vehicles, most of the concept vehicles can't even drive but still get extreme numbers like 420mph. now to make everything clear, hayabusa with a turbo is the fastest bike, without it's the y2k.
@borntorazehell777 aah, wrong again :p ducati demosedici RR goes 190mph, the old suzuki hayabusa(before it was limited to 186mph) still holds the record with 194mph. maybe the ducati can beat that if the weather conditions are perfect, but for now the record still belongs to the hayabusa
sounds like shit.. what the fuck.. Rider @ Pillion needs Ear muffs and Plugs to avoid damage.. and GOD help you to try and get that road legal without some sort of baffling and catalyst :SS
@melboi100 Yes, made by rolls royce. In the United States. Is that hard to comprehend? Rolls Royce also makes turbine engines for ships. In the US. 2 miles from my home. Is that hard to comprehend?
@melboi100 When did I say anything about Yamaha? Yes Rolls-Royce is a British co. While your busy insulting Americans....try putting one and one together yourself.. The engine was designed by Allison Motor...which made the engine until purchased by Rolls-Royce. The engine is still made by the same factory in the United States and is Rolls-Royce by name only. Made in the USA. Rolls-Royce is a good company. Even if it IS British :P
@melboi100 Not to burst your bubble any further, but Allison also made the many of the Rolls Royce Merlin engines that powered the Spitfire, in the 1940's. Made here also, under contract. albeit a Brit design :P
holy hell i just came in my pants sadly i dont think i will ever have $185k spare for a bike but ill keep buyin my loto tickets cos i assure you ill buy this before i buy a car or house
The engine is really an Allison Model 250 Engine developed under General Motors ownership in the 1960's. Brilliant GM engineering. The former Allison company is now owned by Rolls-Royce.
Noise's nice and unique, but I suppose the pilot has to wear ear protection for it, 'cause it clearly exceeds the recommended 85 Db/hour of noise exposure...not to mention the people outside, that have to cover their ears, if they want to preserve their hearing...
WRONG again you british fuck,Allison is a wholly owned subsidiary of GENERAL MOTORS.Last time i checked general motors was not owned by pompous tea driking assholes like you.Besides without our help you would all be speakin german anyway.Put that in your tea and drink it!
I saw the show on discovery channel about the bike and the builders.They said the turbine was an allison out of a bell jet ranger helicopter.Maybe if i put a rr badge on my honda everyone will think it has a rr turbine in it!
Its a pure show piece.Turbines are horribly inneficient at normal street speeds.If you were blasting down some highway city to city at 140mph your gas mileage ratio would go way up compared to city driving.
The 320-hp Y2K is amazing, but the 420-hp looks even cooler.. One idiot said "The Y2K has as much relevant to a motorcycle as a fish".. A pure geniouse said "Why strap a helicopter on a motorcycle and pilot it down the road?... Cause we can!".. 185K for the bike sounded alot. In 2006 the bike was priced at 150K.

WRONG again you british fuck,Allison is a wholly owned subsidiary of GENERAL MOTORS.Last time i checked general motors was not owned by pompous tea driking assholes like you.Besides without our help you would all be speakin german anyway.Put that in your tea and drink it!

I saw the show on discovery channel about the bike and the builders.They said the turbine was an allison out of a bell jet ranger helicopter.Maybe if i put a rr badge on my honda everyone will think it has a rr turbine in it!

do your homework its a rolls royce turbine , infact some Y2K`S came with the rolls royce badge on the front of them

Its a pure show piece.Turbines are horribly inneficient at normal street speeds.If you were blasting down some highway city to city at 140mph your gas mileage ratio would go way up compared to city driving.

The 320-hp Y2K is amazing, but the 420-hp looks even cooler.. One idiot said "The Y2K has as much relevant to a motorcycle as a fish".. A pure geniouse said "Why strap a helicopter on a motorcycle and pilot it down the road?... Cause we can!".. 185K for the bike sounded alot. In 2006 the bike was priced at 150K.
