I did 331 km. per hr. (confirmed by GPS satellite speedo. ) on my 2000 Honda Blackbird (street legal; licensed). Very minor "improvements" on ign.; intake and exhaust. I was 64 yrs. old at the time. The faster I went the more "stable" the bike felt. Not "scary" at all. I would do it again at 72 if my knees weren't fu**ed LOL

I had a Hayabusa B-King for a few years. I decided to see how fast it would go. Got on the interstate, and slowed down until there was a completely clear road ahead. Dropped the hammer, WFO, and saw 185 in fifth gear, going UPHILL. Decided not to even bother with sixth gear. That thing WUZ a beast.

You stopped pushing right where it ends. The bike can but wont break the gentlemen agreement. Unless... I have a carbed ninja that do 215 and you can feel god at that speed. Also the chain, even tight enough will machine the front sproket housing. I think they say the chain weight several tons at that rpm (13500)

That transmission problem was probably in the shifting mechanism, not necessarily in the gears themselves, but in the shifting drum (s). It is very rare and almost undetectable to the naked eye, but a worn peak on a shifting groove will not allow the bike to be shifted to the next gear. Such a problem cost me a win at the 1893 WERA National Finals in the 550 modified class on a Yamaha Seca 550. It was still incredible that they were able to compensate losing 2 gears and still by gearing the machine and upping the boost, achieve 394 MPH in that last run. They didn't mention it, but combined with the 371 MPH pass, that would average out to a 382 MPH record it my math is correct. Good video, and I'm not a Bonneville or even a drag racing fan, but I love almost all types of motorcycle racing and certainly respect these "Kings of Speed on 2 Wheels" whether 11 miles or 1,000' in a straight line.

well, when I was 14 we drove a 64 Malibu towards Tombstone at 140mph. Had my dads vette up to 135mph in 1967. Only had one bike that would go over 110, had it, a Yama 700, up to 140 with my 9 yr old son onboard. Had my dad's vette, after I bought it, up to 170 on N2O. Now we have a Tesla dual motor... not sure if honey is gunna let me open it up. But 60 does come up in 4 sec.

At 18:27 it is inferred that it is "the holy grail" of motorcycle racing. As a rider of 50 years, I'm pretty sure the vast majority of riders would tell you the Isle of Man TT is the holy grail and probably couldn't tell you when the last time the record at Bonneville was broken, by whom, and what speed was attained. Bonneville results are of interest to a very very small percentage of the motorcycling world. Don't get me wrong because there is a degree of interest in it but there is something that we see and feel when a rider goes blastin by at close to 200 mph and then negotiate a turn with with his head 2 feet away from a dry rock wall. We like to see a few turns along with a few hills and valleys, throw in some dogs n cars n trees n rocks n sh*t to keep it interesting. That's what makes biking a challenge to us. Going fast in a straight line not so much...........except for drag racing which has more appeal to street riders than Bonneville will ever have mainly because you can see the whole shootin match without a set of binoculars...............and they blowed up good, real good. And always remember the good Doctor John Hinds, March 21, 1980 - July 4, 2015, one of the best that ever lived.

Amazing effort: perseverance, team work, willingness to take risks... the list of things that you have to be to get it all happening is incredible. Technically you might call this a motorcycle, but it bears very little relation to what a motorcycle actually is, which makes it a little hard to relate to. Still... hard to imagine going that fast with two screaming Hayabusa motors behind you, giving it everything they have. Suzuki know how to make engines that you can just keep on adding the layers of stuff to, so that they just keep on delivering. So kudos to the people a Hamamatsu, too!
@1crazypj
@1crazypj Год назад
Suzuki have always made real good, often over engineered engines since the first GS in 1977. Electrical systems though.............. In fact, until around 2007 you could still buy parts to convert the1979¬83, 2 valve or 4 valve Suzuki GS/GSX 1100 motor to a two valve 1750cc or larger to compete with the 'Harley Davidson' full billet 2 .5 liter motors (nothing HD on or in them except the HD sticker) At least the Suzuki used stock cases and most of the transmission.

There are "many" classes for bikes (and cars) so production vehicles aren't running for the same records as the modified vehicles. Classes start with Engine Displacement and Engine Configuration IE 2-stroke, 4-stroke, V Twin, NA, Turbo, Nitrous all have class/rules/records of they're own. Then it gets into body style, from Naked to Streamline (like this bike). Now lets add different Fuels into the mix = MANY different classes/records... A friend of mine has set several LSR records on bikes in multiple classes just by doing things like running Naked first (no fairings), then he would bolt just the nose on for another class/record, THEN he add the sides the fairings to set a 3rd record in a 3rd class. Next after that he simply changed Fuels (from pump gas to race gas) and set 2 or 3 more records all at one even...

Wow, 394 mph! 👍👏 Glad that tire did the trick and held together!🙏 Thats "Only" 2.92 Times Faster than the 135 mph I ran in 1983, on an empty freeway at 21 years old tucked down on the tank of a 1983 Kawasaki GPz 750!😱 "That'll do pig, That'll do"!😁 Mike in San Diego.🌞🎸🚀🖖

Check pics and videos from converted film, of course, and notice the spear shaped protrusion on nose of the aircraft. I read about it when i was a kid, I'm 68 now so you can do the math, and what i read was that as the jet powered aircraft approached 300mph they encountered that barrier of wind that was like a wall and required a, for those days, a massive amount of horsepower to overcome. So someone came up with the idea to use the spear lookin things to create it's own intrusion into the wall out in front of the jet's fuselage and the waves opened up a type of hole thru the wall ahead of the jet. You can find graphs and wind tunnel results from back then. Suggested it to John Force to try on his Funny Car and while he laughed but was for trying it since it's the tires that trip the lights, not the body, nobody humored him, or me. Seems like if it would possibly help anybody it would be salt flat racers. Probl cost less than $500 and what could it hurt. Another crazy idea is to install an ionizing device that thins the air ahead of the vehicle. Probably wudn't help as you're interrupting the air so quickly. In a closed space it will cause the dust to go to the floor. Know ya'll don't read comments but perhaps someone who knows you might mention the jet fighter fix. If it only made a mile or two mph difference i think that would be cool but if it helped in stabilizing the bike that would be amazing. I'm dyin ftom 5th cancer but wish i could see ya'll try it. If only in a wind tunnel. rick in Tennessee. Uh, don't have any suggestions to lower "pucker factor" of rider/driver. I'm pretty sure that causes some drag on any bike or vehicle. The machines can feel the tenseness. L8r.

Why does the sound cut out about 30 seconds in? I guess it was stuck in 5th gear... I went back and relouded and it worked ok. Sounds pretty cool with the engines singing. Still, the best sound ever is Al Teague's car with the big V8 turning ??? 7K +?. Like a dragster but just going on and on and on. Better than any symphony and I'm a classical music nut. I wonder if the thing was flexing at high speed and jamming the shift linkage. Imagine how fast he could have gone with the top two gears?
@andrewlongfield3102
@andrewlongfield3102 3 года назад
@Chris Baker. You think a big V8 sounds good (yes they do, my 413 Max wedge sounds awesome at speed), but try a V12. I've got a smallish 3.9 litre Italian V12 that turns 8,000rpm, and sounds Like nothing else, but my 6 litre German V12 is a lot faster even though they limit them to 6,000rpm and it doesn't sound as good.. For a few years now I have been thinking of finding a cheap one and stripping it down to build a salt car. I reckon I could lose nearly a tonne in weight taking all the sound deadening and electric motors out of it. The standard cars will do 340kmh, so dropping lots of weight it would have the horsepower to turn higher gearing easily enough. I'd be happy to join the 200 club. That would be cool in a factory spec car.

@@andrewlongfield3102 I had a Ford Escort SX2, DOHC, 4 valves per cylinder and it sounded really good at 8 grand. But I also used to ride a Honda CB700 Nighthawk that turned 11,500. I hear bikes every night that turn well into the teens here. They sound great too. Not enough big V8s though. So I'm deprived 🙃.
@andrewlongfield3102
@andrewlongfield3102 3 года назад
@@chrisbaker2903 Those Escort motors sound great. I rallied for nearly 30 years, so they are a very familiar noise to me, especially listening to them coming through the forest at night pulling full revs. I had a mate who spent many years driving speedway in Dirt Modifieds (basically sprint cars without wings), and he was telling me that some of the guys running Chevs (304 I assume), were running them to 15 or 16k , and the Chrysler 318's were running over 17 grand. Unfortunately I never got to hear them, and I think the bigger engines in the sprint cars 'only' rev to about 12k. I think you are probably exactly right about body flexing jamming the linkage at speed. I think it was most likely wind pressure over a certain speed distorting the bodywork enough to jam the shifter. It was one solution they never seemed to explore. They also never tried (I assume because it's not in the film), short shifting it into high gear at a lower speed earlier in the run, and using more track to bring the revs up. It's possible it wouldn't have had the power to maintain that speed at lower revs., but it didn't look like they tried it. Maybe they already knew the engine parameters well enough to know it wouldn't work, but what if they raised the rev limit, and 'shortened' the gearing allowing them to get in the high gears earlier at lower speed? They would probably still be able to run the same top speed as the higher rev limit would cancel the lower gearing, the difference being that they could put it into high gear at a lower speed. Mind you thats making a lot of assumptions about things I don't really have enough data for.
