Well considering a stock bandit can officially go 151mph. If you put a longer toothed sproket and a stage 1 with a holeshot pipe I can't see you not getting closer for $10000 cheaper!

It must be a record for beamers, but hey!, a Suzuki is (again) the brand of one of the next attempts:

UK magazine Perfomance bikes is building a turbo busa with 700+BHP just for the speed record.
According to PB it has the biggest turbo ever on a motorcycle, so they are a bit worried if the rear tyre will be able to put all the horses down on the salt.......

I can't wait to see that one go (the bike, not the rear tyre).

Just an anecdote in this months Sport rider mag there is an ad with some guy that had gone 245.13 mph or something like that I'll get the name, he's sponsered by Hein Gerike clothing. Doesn't that "beat" 176?
