A Hayabusa doesn't produce enough torque to normally power a heavier vehicle. You'd have to have really short gearing to compensate for the lack of torque. There is a better option though. There are companies that make Hayabusa V8s, and you can get those super- or turbocharged.

[@notyourtypicalfarah7194]

Matt never hits those numbers with Mustangs, other channels do though

[@warkus123]

180hp may not sound like a lot, but at that low weight that's like having 630hp in that mustang for power to weight. But it looses in top end of course cause top speed is factor of horsepower and aerodynamics, and a Mini isn't exactly aerodynamic.

[@anomuumit]

Just goes to show you how insane the power to weight ratio is for motorcycles. There is a reason why they still use NA engines for the most part.

[@warkus123]

@@anomuumit And a turbo takes up space, which there's a severe lack of in bikes and ads weight, which makes the bike tougher to handle. And because they're light and never have to worry about towing or carrying a lot, torque isn't important, so high reving NA is more logical than turbo. Plus the boost of a turbo kicking in can be downright deadly on a bike, throwing you into an unexpected wheelie or drift that can throw you off the bike if you're not very experienced, so NA is safer for mass market too. But yeah when they're boosted like the Ninja H2R or some crazy aftermarket stuff, they become completely nuts that no car could ever dream of keeping up with.

[@lazarushernandez5827]

I think the Mini's gearing also plays a factor here.

[@warkus123]

@@lazarushernandez5827 well yeah but when you got bad aero and low power there's not really any point in gearing it for 180mph it'll max out at like 130-140mph or so anyway so why not gear it for ultimate acceleration but low top speed?

[@jimmyaxelsson1312]

Sound of the mini busa was lovely.. Like music.. 🙏

[@Druze_Tito]

as soon as aerodynamics start to influence the speed - you win over the mini

[@ethelmini]

It's not aerodynamics. The Mini's aren't that bad and being small counts as much. It's power. The faster you go, the more goes to overcoming drag & the less that colossal weight advantage counts.

[@deanosaur808]

Gearing plays a massive part too, and these bike engines lack torque. This one only had 180bhp 🤷
