700 Horsepower from Suzuki Hayabusa



March 11, 2005 Perhaps the most insane news we've posted on Gizmag this week comes from the inaugural DynoJet Horsepower Challenge held last weekend in Valdosta, Georgia, USA. Basically, DynoJet make motorcycle dynamometers and they provided a bunch oif them and anybody could roll up and the guy whose bike made the most horsepower won. The winning fellow was Hank Booth of Great Falls, Montana, whose highly modified 1999 Suzuki 1300GSXR Hayabusa motorcycle with an NLR turbocharger cranked out an incredible 701.32 horsepower.

 

dang bro that thing probably has so much torque off the line that the frame would bend

 

dude most street cars cant handle 700hp and this is in a bike!!!! i bet if he poped a wheelie the earth would revolve backwards.

 

Where's the link? I'm using Mozila Firefox, is that the reason it didn't show up?

deej

 

thats just a thing it put in there when i copied and poasted it there actually isnt a link. i'll remove it

 

Thats crazy. Who would ride something like that.

You are insane!!! j/k how have things been remo?

 

its only good for straight line running, what good would it do in the twisties?

 

Your right, I dont think anyone would try to do a few fast turnies with 700hp. It is obviously set up for drag or braging rights.
