I'd say this is accurate, give or take.

Hopefully I can let you know exactly that in a couple of month lol.

If I had to guess,..1100-1300rwhp(i think) to put one in check.

Damn good runs. I ran those same tires this summer before my bias ply set up. Would buy again.

Depends on a lot of stuff.. How much power the Busa makes, how well the rider can stick it, and how quick he can get it into boost..

I see a LOT of turbo bikes that are straight up dogs in highway rolls...people don't know WTF they are doing with them.

I do know one guy that has one properly setup and runs hard.... Probably setup a little better then mine even. It takes a 1700 rwhp UGR X lambo to beat him... There is vids of it on YouTube.


My bike has the same turbo kit, same HP as this one in the vid, but he really has his suspension and gearing dialed in....this is the best set up roll race turbo bike I've seen yet..




It takes about 1000-1100rwhp to beat an average running, plain Jane 250 rwhp turbo bike..... But I've seen cars with less beat them too.. Setup and rider is VERY critical on turbo bikes...

Make sure to post videos! Bikes vs cars are always fun. A friend of mine has an underground racing TT lambo and he was either neck and neck or beat a turbo busa. That was an intense video with a lot of HP!

I remember many many years ago getting a little famous on a few forums for racing a Supercharged Viper (~900hp) on my modded 954RR :P :P
