What Does a Normal Rider Think About My 300HP Turbo Hayabusa?

Hats off to Josh, he has the chill vibe to throw a leg over this machine and maintain composure, respect.

I weigh 240 pounds and am 6' tall. I got my busa in 2002 and have had it for 20 years and I still rarely give it full throttle. Yeah, I don't need to turbo it. I can't imagine being like you guys -- 150 pounds with twice the power. I'd be scared the rear tire would slip and I'd end up a squid if I hit the throttle too hard. Also, once I hit around 165m/h on the freeway I start getting very nervous that a car will pop out or an animal will jump in front of me. It's very cool - but no thanks! I don't even want the supercharger ... just an old NA for an old man like me, thank you

[@AuroraRainUwU]

I just started riding and even my old gs500 seems really quick to me, i can't begin to imagine what this this feels like

i didn't get my first sportbike until i was 40 and even then, it's a '92 Kawi ZX11. that said, if i had one when i was a kid, with my driving record, things would have ended horribly. a 30yo sport-touring literbike (it's 1052cc... may as well be a literbike) with 150hp is enough to catch me off guard. i would love to ride a beast like this, but i don't need to own it. the Hayabusa effect is real, and i don't need to get used to riding something that unhinged.

[@carver7689]

Terminal velocity in freefall position is about 120mph. You know you're there when you lose the sensation of falling. So yeah, compared to the turbabusa, skydiving might be relatively peaceful.

[@mrt2this607]

I'd say spot on. I actually did 2 of those things with little time in between. Was a day on the way home from work and the highway was clear. Took my 750 to redline in 6th. Damn that was fun. If I remember right it was just over 170 before I let off. Then in 2 days went skydiving on the weekend. The initial fall was awesome and the terminal speed fun too. But the bike felt like so much more of a rush and acceleration. Still an awesome experience though and want to do it again. Cannot imagine what a turbo busa would feel like. Looks so damn fun, now I want one. Definitely will not pass it up if I ever have the opportunity to ride one.
