If Keith tells you, tell me, I'll cut his tongue off, and he'll die from not being able to taste his Whiskey!

would like to see you race a 'Busa and embarass it! Watching that speedo go up freaks me out from my desk!

..but don't get it twisted, I would ABSOLUTELY go for a ride if offered...but if that thing time warps back to the future, I might get a bit anxious

As fast as your car is, it's scary to think how much faster a Busa is.

Yeah, they have a high top speed, but bikes aerodynamics are not like a car. I ran one a while ago on my old 19psi map and yeah I got beat, but wasnt near that bad and at around 140ish it stopped pulling. Berts car is making more then mine did, and if he has a higher psi map then I think it could be an interesting turn out.

a busa is a top end bike. My GSXR1000 would give it to a busa 0-100. After that it would leave me. Also dont the new busa's run 9 sec quarter miles?

The 2008 Busa in stock form runs a 9.85 @ 149 in the 1/4 mile
0-180 in 18.9 sec
Top Speed 369mph ( I think that has to be a misprint)

The 08 busas are a good bit different then the older models. Compression went up from 11:1 to 12.5:1 and also went up 40cc. I think a 80-170 race would be interesting with an OLDER busa or 1k bike.

Not saying Bert would just walk the bike, but if he lost I think it would be by a respectable margin.

Power to weight ratio in that motorcycle is truly sick!!! Shame they made our cars as heavy as they did.
Have you done anything to lighten the car Bert?
