Kick ass bike. Looks like the back tire needs to be about 2 or 3 times wider to get any sort of traction when WOT. I love seeing turbo technology progress. I also can't wait to see what the electric stuff can really do when they figure out the energy storage problems. Until then, I'll stick with explosions.
+Adrien Perié While I love combustion engines, they won't be able to hold a candle to the sort of instantaneous power that electricity can deliver. Electricity is SCARY fast, but the battery and charging tech right now severely cripples them in the range department. However, we will get there. That being said, I will always have an internal combustion engined vehicle somewhere in my garage(and my heart). :)
seeing this crazy hayabusa machine with compound turbo setup & 564HP just make me have way more respect for Patrick Furstenhoff & his 499HP single turbo naked hayabusa with him pulling the front wheel up @ 345km/220.2MPH on a public road with traffic & all, Just Sayin'
The video was made after the first event. Testing only. We are trying to do it as safe as possible. I lost a good friend trying to accomplish the same record. The bike made 564 at 18psi the turbo kit will make upwards of 75psi. We figure the bike will make over 1000hp not that we can ever use all of it but it's nice to know its there. :)
This is the kind of out of the. I engineering I love to see. Instead of listening to those who say it can't be done you guys obviously stepped back and said what will it take to be done. absolutely incredible. subbing to see more.
Ah bud thanks. I am going to publish a "podcast/ phone interview" with Don soon from 4 months ago where we discuss alot of the questions on here. We are going to do another one soon. Apparently lots of areospace engineers building 300mph bikes on here
That dyno pull made me pucker because I know that feeling when the turbo kicks in and you only have one tire to put the power down on. This is insane...
Amazing motorcycle and amazing vid! At 1:27, I jumped, waiting for the bike to rip the harness apart .... it didn't, good. There is no limit to one's creativity. BRAVO!
that aero testing is the shit i bored and stroked my fj1100 added nitrous and hit an aerodynamic wall at around 160 mph, 6500 bucks and gained only a hair over 10mph over stock ....of course it got to that speed substantially quicker...that machine i some engineering genious. thanks for posting the video!
You guys did a nice job! I first noticed the welding and then the attention to detail.. Good looking out for the Pilot.. I can only imagine what damage a chain could do at those speeds.. So props there. It's to bad that in order to be wind resistant the body has to be shaped like that.. Don't take it personally.. It looks nice.. It looks better without it.
Don , you know i follow your LSR Dream /Project from start and love 2 see this vid .Be safe for next event , Greets from flatcountry the Netherlands Kees
Since the videos the turbos have been enlarged and the 4 gallon per minute pump has been increased to 6gpm. We will post some run video soon. July will be a good month.
Im familiar with compound setups - looks like you have 2 small high pressure turbos (one on each side?) and a large low pressure up front. But all that work for 18PSI seems odd. Surely youre running much more than that for your final setup? And then with 9:1 compression I assume youll be on race fuel or E85 or something to get the most out of it. Is the compound setup just to give you the most possible RPM range for the boost or is it for efficiency? Once you get up to 25+PSI usually a single stage system starts to get pretty narrow as far as RPM range
Great job, hope you can run on a decent surface soon. Would it be hard to fit traction control? I've subscribed, looking forward to seeing how you get on. Fingers crossed :)
Suzuki! We enjoy, adore, appreciate again & again the Busa remaining in the Top top consistent good looking department! Harleyesque? Yeah. Bonneville like? Dead on timeless appearance! Geez... Hayabusa is timeless. Records galore! #1 shop/build base to match any fac. "cheaters"... Suzuki Motor Corp. Choice? Of champions! ... J... Busaman
Have you guys ever thought, maybe you should level the volume in your videos. jesus christ i turned up my volume all the way to hear you talk in the intro then the dyno run was super loud.... thanks.
"This bike can make more power than can ever be used". Well, that settles it then. Only 58mph to go until you beat that other Hayabusa at the Texas Mile!
you guys are nuts that's a very well executed turbo setup. you could get a normal ish fairing to fit on it, is it still streetable or useless unless on full throttle?
nice bike, really good aerodinamic and grip setup. But if you want to build something no one has seen before that reachs 300mph in a mile, somehow you'll need both wheels traction. Hope you achieve it. Mechanical engineering student here
what tires do you use? suggest? I want to get to 200 and was looking at any cycle tires but non are rated to 200. some say 18Xmph + but i'm not wiling to risk a tire blow out, etc... Thanks fellas. AMAZING bike btw
Dose the turbine have a shaft to the crank (compound) like a Wright cyclone.or Napier nomad?...Wright R-3350 Turbo-Compound radial engine. Two exhaust recovery turbines shown outside impeller casing area (top (silver) and lower (red blading)) that are geared to the crankshaft.
I like the high volume low pressure boost... I wonder how much boost each turbo makes? ether way flow is the answer! not sure how they are getting the downforce for the traction though?
So you guys have the Exaust Header connected to a Small Turbo, Then plumbing from the Small Turbo going into a Massive Turbo, Which is then plumbed to the Exaust Right??? I Might have Missed the part but I didnt see an intercooler?! Anyways Dudes, That Bike is a Damn MONSTER 👹! The Size of the Second Turbo man.. . Im Speachless!!!!!!
I know a guy who races in Florida, not going to drop his name here, his nick is Pharaoh. He rides an S1000rr and has a front fender that encloses the wheel about down to the axle, from my humble opinion, and I don't know if rules limit this, but I think your design could benefit from a more aerodynamic enclosing front fender, and also, some side flares to generate downforce, especially on the rear. Great job, this thing looks over built/powered twice over
Question...What if a gust of wind hits the motorcycle? How will you keep from crashing? I wonder because you have no lean angle at all. My BMW K1200S can get a fairly decent straight-line angle of lean from a strong steady crosswind. This happened to me riding out to Colorado through NE New Mexico and NW Texas. There were miles where I was probably at 10-15 degrees of lean just going in straight line.
Fair question. One reason just testing the bike for boost control takes good conditions. For big runs with the fairing we'll have to wait for basically NO wind. Without the fairing there is a larger window of error. You point out one of the limiting factors in testing.
+Hass/Serafini Racing Is there not a way to design the bottom of the fairing so it gives you some lean angle? The way it is now it would dig into the road and cause you to crash.
Good observation. The bodywork was designed that way and we only intend on running all out in the beat conditions. A friend recently ran in some wind and had some issues. We intend on waiting for good conditions for this second reason. At really high speeds ever with a ability to lean you get into trouble really fast. If the angle of trajectory gets off a couple degrees you are simply going to be off the track before you can do anything. At 250-300mph a 300foot wide runway becomes very narrow when off 2-3' at those speeds. But it is something once big testing occurs we will take into consideration.
you guys need to learn how to set audio levels
I love the fact it almost triples in horsepower in literately 1.5 seconds.
I love land speed stuff. You guys never fail to innovate in awesome ways. The classes really make for some interesting stuff.
1:21 my eardrums quit the vessel that is my body.

I don't know but for me, that's so satisfying hearing that turbo kicking
Yea!
***** Interesting ... there is always an additional perspective to things. I'm not sarcastic ... Thx
you fucking asss
Kick ass bike. Looks like the back tire needs to be about 2 or 3 times wider to get any sort of traction when WOT.

Instant max torque, let's hope they build some usefull batterys soon :D
We can switch to electric in cities and keep gas stuff to have fun.

No Words for this.
My full Respect for the Mechanics!

Yep GhostRider is the best. A true legend.
he is kinda building a new bike tho
I was thinking he should ride this beast
The video was made after the first event. Testing only. We are trying to do it as safe as possible. I lost a good friend trying to accomplish the same record.

OMG.
Amazing motorcycle!! Great work guys !! I'm truly impressed with the craftsmanship and engineering of the motorcycle.
+Kevin Carrera thanks Kevin we apperciate the compliment.
This is the kind of out of the. I engineering I love to see. Instead of listening to those who say it can't be done you guys obviously stepped back and said what will it take to be done. absolutely incredible. subbing to see more.

omg that pull on the dyno was crazy :)
4:18 - Maybe putting little wings to add some downforce you fix that issue.
That dyno pull made me pucker because I know that feeling when the turbo kicks in and you only have one tire to put the power down on. This is insane...
1:20 rip headphone users
Amazing motorcycle and amazing vid! At 1:27, I jumped, waiting for the bike to rip the harness apart .... it didn't, good. There is no limit to one's creativity. BRAVO!
man that's superbike!!! looks mean,,, love the placement for the turbo.
Awesome build, guys. Love it.
Wow that is crazy cool hope you get there and smash the record fly low and speed safely
Awesome work guys! Best of luck on your goal!
Brilliant work.
I can't wait to see what you do this year. I wish I could be there to see it, just like the old days when I was at every meet. Good Luck !!
Sounds like you need a week in Maine!!!
I love it! Looks like you put a lot of well-designed fabrication into this beast.
Don't mind the haters. Take this baby to the Salt Flats!
Don built it strictly for pavement but who knows what will happen
that aero testing is the shit i bored and stroked my fj1100 added nitrous and hit an aerodynamic wall at around 160 mph, 6500 bucks and gained only a hair over 10mph over stock ....of course it got to that speed substantially quicker...that machine i some engineering genious. thanks for posting the video!
Wow,very impressive build here guys!!! My hopes are with ya!!! :)

So props there. It's to bad that in order to be wind resistant the body has to be shaped like that.. Don't take it personally.. It looks nice.. It looks better without it.
Sir, absolutely brilliant machine.
Nice build. !! Great job !!
Thats a cool build!
Nice video!
Don , you know i follow your LSR Dream /Project from start and love 2 see this vid .Be safe for next event , Greets from flatcountry the Netherlands Kees
I will let Don know. Thanks
Volume warning... When they hit the dyno, shit gets real
I have a Busa. The one you made is crazy! Was scarey to watch just on the dyno! I hope you keep working on this project
Since the videos the turbos have been enlarged and the 4 gallon per minute pump has been increased to 6gpm. We will post some run video soon. July will be a good month.
Way to go guys!!! Awesome machine!!
That's some spectacular power to weight ratio!
yep...you guys are officially insane. I love it! Be safe on that widowmaker. I do believe you easily have 300mph in the bag.
Using this as inspiration for my compound turbskie propane geo metro 3 banger.
Awesome job guys.
super marvelous creation
What is the compression ratio ?
Why the tail si cut square,and not like in the aero room ?
Are there exit holes in the tail ?
The tail was changed from information learned in the wind tunnel. The holes in the rear of the tail are for air pressure.
Thank you.
The compression ratio is a secret right ?
+michaelovitch 9:1
Thanks : )

Bill Warner would be proud. Wish you best of luck and safety to reach 300mph.
Thanks
Who is Bill Warner?
The man who crossed 300mp/h or 500km/h on a conventional sit on bike...World record,rest in peace Bill!!
Absolutely beautiful fabrication and machine work and great courage to ride such a machine!
The 564 bhp is on Methanol for fuel or ?
That's 564 at 18psi it will make up to 75psi. VP M1 Methanol
Great stuff .....
Awesome sauce.
That engine and turbo is art.
When will this go in to production? lol
Very Wild Build..!! Are the Forks and triple tree strong enough for all the forces at 300 MPH?
Great job, hope you can run on a decent surface soon. Would it be hard to fit traction control? I've subscribed, looking forward to seeing how you get on. Fingers crossed :)

Have you guys ever thought, maybe you should level the volume in your videos. jesus christ i turned up my volume all the way to hear you talk in the intro then the dyno run was super loud.... thanks.
What a machine! my dad's race car uses a modified hayabusa engine, doesn't make 560Hp though, that's insane!
Dam!! wish u the best!! nice video!!! looks like the warhog A 10 on 2 wheels! best greetings from germany!
Thanks!!!
"This bike can make more power than can ever be used".
Well, that settles it then. Only 58mph to go until you beat that other Hayabusa at the Texas Mile!

who would be so stupid as to dislike this masterpiece?
Espectáculo de dos ruedas!
you guys are nuts that's a very well executed turbo setup. you could get a normal ish fairing to fit on it, is it still streetable or useless unless on full throttle?
thats bananas.. keep it up..
That manifold is pure art!
Bad ass bike man!!!
I love the aero dynamics that nose cone design is always how I pictured a busa should be not the little tiny screen it has
nice bike, really good aerodinamic and grip setup. But if you want to build something no one has seen before that reachs 300mph in a mile, somehow you'll need both wheels traction. Hope you achieve it. Mechanical engineering student here
Oh, my God, that's cool.
what tires do you use? suggest? I want to get to 200 and was looking at any cycle tires but non are rated to 200. some say 18Xmph + but i'm not wiling to risk a tire blow out, etc... Thanks fellas. AMAZING bike btw
Looks like its warping the time/space continuum

Badass! just BADASS!!!!
Pretty cool
simply badass what else can i say?
The design is very sick for these machine, look like from '50 years
When shit was built to last!!! Lol
who else having a heart attack at 1:21 ?
I did, scared the shit out of me :D
damn near pissed myself when it switched vids😂
Curtis Wilson
Curtis Wilson i did pee a little.
Looked bloody awesome to me!
is that an oil-less comp turbo? if so, how is it holding up? any data or feedback on service interval and longevity?
Mother of God....that intake is massive
Niiiice Job
Pure art
I like the high volume low pressure boost... I wonder how much boost each turbo makes? ether way flow is the answer! not sure how they are getting the downforce for the traction though?
Would it be of benefit to fit a spoiler of some sort. Little ones on each side, front and rear like on a plane?
just awesome man! I can drive this monster?
So you guys have the Exaust Header connected to a Small Turbo, Then plumbing from the Small Turbo going into a Massive Turbo, Which is then plumbed to the Exaust Right???

Pefect cruiser. Able to handle the rain
Heck yeah!!!
very impressive
Hermosa!
凄い本格的ですね♪
crazy
I'd love to learn more about the motor
Would this be a good first bike for me? I'm mature and I'll respect the power.
HOLY SHIT!!!!!! I WANT ONE!!!!
You guys do work on kids power wheels? My daughters power wheel is weak. No top end. Beautiful bike build also.
That rat rod @ 3:25, I've seen it before in a few different videos/articles.. Anyone know anything about it??

Sickest piece of automotive I've seen, turbo placement is boss as fuck!
nothing money can not do ,i would not be surprised if more than half a million has gone in to that
Holy hell! That power to weight is better than you could get if you strapped nothing but a seat to a naked gas turbine engine! Fkn _insane_!
Man i would like to get in touch with you about building a car engine for an 81 scirocco I would love to set some records.
Awesome bike. Must be nice to have free time..
is that stainless steel tube and tri-clovers (couplings) you are using for turbo/air ducting?
I will find out and ask the team and we will go over it in a YT podcast. Thanks for asking.
