jbot Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 it's a bargain at 90k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Meh. I don't know how well that suspension setup will work... reminds me of this:I don't think I'd feel too confident @ 200mph on that bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbot Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 i dont think you'll be doing 200mph on any production bike unless it's geared pretty ridiculous like.skimming the pics and article, it appears the front suspension is basically a modified version of a conventional rear suspension from any old sportbike. what's so scary about it? i mean, other than the fact that you want to go 200mph, which that in it of itself is scary.bi-mota has several bikes that used a similar concept.... i don't think ive heard of one falling apart at high speed.

magley64 Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 how is it the most powerful? (do they mean power:weight ratio?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSVDon Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 how is it the most powerful? (do they mean power:weight ratio?)270 bhp from the factory? I'd say that's the most powerful production bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magley64 Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 270 bhp from the factory? I'd say that's the most powerful production bike. where did you see 270? I read the article twice and only found a 211 hp model... MTT is available in a 420 hp flavor211 is just 18 more than a bone stock 2010 zx-14, and for the cost of this thing, you could pay msrp for zx-14's and almost manage a different one for every day of the week. (though I'm sure any dealership would be happy to unload 7 of them to you for 90k, buying in bulk like that.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harb67 Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Ok so on the very same page touting that bike as the most powerful ever, there is a link to this bike: http://www.gizmag.com/asphaltfighter-stormbringer-280-bhp-motorcycle/13648/ under the title "The AsphaltFighter Stormbringer - 280bhp production motorcycle".Accurate journalism at its finest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moto-Brian Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 What are the standards for production? I mean, the Boss Hoss has a Corvette motor in it and they produce them in amounts per year, right? Is there a limit and is there a set of guides they follow to come up with that?My feelings are that you need to do 100-200 per year to be considered "produced"...

ShankroidBeast Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 (edited) I have about $10,500 in my turbo busa that has 240 HPThe most intelligent quote I think I've ever read on a forum. Beat me to it On pump gas 1000cc engines won't go much beyond the 200hp mark that BMW has set. I think forced induction is the next phase of superbikes. Can't believe there has not been a REAL production bike that has it. Sure a lot of cool rare bikes, but nothing like a zx10 with a turbo.

Xyloft Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 I think it looks unfinished. I also think it's weird the exhaust outlet is in front of the rear sets. I'd imagine with enough use, your right leg would get a sweet exhaust coating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Punk Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Easy, that's right everybody’s doing it. I highly doubt it’s easy. Maybe, with some sort of power adder and gear changes but doubtful for most people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
