@@flex99912 Almost forgot that Kawasaki H2R goes over 250mph and that Y2K has a top speed of just slightly 3mph under 240 and 250mph is a round number 400km/h
@@flex99912 keep in mind due to the turbine engine, the Y2K accelerates much faster past 175mph than the H2R, plus the modernized MTT 420 RR will smoke the shit out of the H2R.
As the old joke about muscle cars used to say, "it can pass anything but a gas station". That RR C250 will burn perhaps 15-20 gallons per hour, at idle! At full power, depending on which exact model he is using, it will burn as much as 30-60 GPH. In normal street driving you are going to get perhaps 2-3 MPG. I realize the point of this thing was not fuel economy or range but a gas turbine on a motorcycle, especially the Allison Rolls C250 series, is just a terrible choice.
Shane Trapp I'm guessing it's the red bike that passes in the background which is crazy because it sounds like a big displacement motor loping like it has a blower lol
I guess people are trying to be funny saying there are no video's showing this bike in motion when the truth is there are PLENTY of video's showing it on regular streets as well as the track. They're all over RU-vid - all you have to do is LOOK. Some people just love to exaggerate though.
There are plenty of it being ridden, but they're all on the widest possible turns or in straight lines and they're usually being passed by bikes that are a shit ton easier to ride. So basically by all of them. My whole thing is wanting to see how it's ridden in curves where engine braking and downshifting would normally be necessary. Just to see what is done with this instead. Is it all brakes then?
I'm cool alert @ 1:00😎👏😄 sick ass bike though never seen or heard shit like that besides the biker boy's movie. Anybody know how fast it goes & what does y2k stand for
The problem with these turbine bikes is that there is a 1.5 second delay in throttle response, both in acceleration and deceleration. That makes them virtually unrideable on the street.
