shittygsxr Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I am sure a lot of people wont recognize it, so I would like to point out that the blue bike with the yellow flames is the turbine powered y2k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I am sure a lot of people wont recognize it, so I would like to point out that the blue bike with the yellow flames is the turbine powered y2k.I saw that. Did you see the exhaust on it? Nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flounder Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I would give it a shot... I would love to take the Y2K for a spin just to say I did.. I wonder what top speed is on that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaNick Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I saw that Y2K, but I couldn't find anyone post a speed of what that guy did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I know it's not the same, but in Project Gotham 4...that Y2K is a dog. Good top end, but a 600 would eat it's lunch for acceleration -- in the game anyway. I don't know how it fares in real life. I'm sure the 2-speed gearbox, 500lbs weight, and the 52,000 rpm it takes to reach peak horsepower doesn't help much on the acceleration end. The Bikez.com site say's it'll run a 9.8s quarter mile and hit 227mph in 15secs, so maybe it will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaNick Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 It's more of a "once you get going" bike for power, and top end.Jay Leno has one. He told a story of this guy tailgating him and was on his ass at a stop light so he revved it up and it melted the guys front bumper...haha.

Chrisoh Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I remember that story Nick. I think it was on one of the shows that did a story on him, not in a article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shittygsxr Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 It does not use thrust for movement, it uses a chain and gearbox and the exhaust comes out on the side like shown in the pic so I think he was just kidding in the article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I remember that story Nick. I think it was on one of the shows that did a story on him, not in a article.I second that. I heard it, but it was from a show doing a story on Leno and/or the bike. I think it's floating around on youtube, but I can't find it.

NinjaNick Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Flounder I said he "TOLD", I didn't say anything about an article man. You'll have to find that on your own brother. I watched him mention it on television. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

playerpro153 Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 The bike is turbine powered, but not thrust driven. The result of the turbine still causes a lag between throttle movement and response from the bike. In theory the bike should accelerate more as the speed increases due to increased intake flow, but eventually aerodynamic drag overpowers the bike. Fd= -.5p(v^2)CA. -just being a tool.

Dweezel Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 So do you think a K&N would help it? would a TRE make it accelerate smoother? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
