Seriously, I'm building one. My god, that's outta control. I have to have it.
Man, that looks like total unadulterated fun. That dude was shreddin' the tires all over the track. Drift practice! :)

I'll bet you could build one of those for like $3K... Find a GSXR engine from an old wadded bike (yeah, there'll be some wadded GSXR Thou's)...
I recommend going with even bigger rear wheels though, that's just too much power for those... Maybe a heavier flywheel. Gotta do something to at least allow enough power to hit the pavement to accelerate...

That guy is nuts for not spending the extra $ to make some sort of roll cage.
Best thing is, with Formula 1 tires, you can pull turns of up to 4 g, whereas motorcycle slicks will go 1.5 g or so.
At last we've found a use for all those gixxers that show up in the salvage yards and the back lot of repair shops--hell, they're usually spilling around to the front of the stores!

I thought it said it was a gixxer 1100 engine? Either way, BADASS!!!!! But I think a 600 would be a much funner engine in there. Mabey even an SV engine:D

Thats okay Ikazuchi, it wouldn't play on my computer a year ago, and this time it did. I guess WMP10 IS better that WMP8.

Sister Mary Francis!! :eek:
Reminds me of playing GT3 with a silly overpowered RWD car and the electronic aids off. Except this thing is for real.....
Poor tires never had a chance.

That onboard footage (and the armco) reminded me of the days of Formula One and Cosworth DFV-powered Tyrrells. Wonder what the power-weight ratio of that thing is as compared to a modern F1 car. Sweet, sick, and sweet ...

I've got an acquaintance with a wrecked 600RR...he wants to sell.
I'm going up north to the town where he lives this weekend, want me to check and see how much he'd sell the engine/management for?
