He's doctored the speedo or is using lower gearing, 150mph on the roads looks a lot quicker than that (allegedly). Look at the rate the white lines on the center of the road pass at 100mph as he slows down.

Assuming its in standard trim, they 'Only' do 196mph acording to tests etc. Unless turboed or nitrious then forget the above.

Novembers copy of Bike dropped though the door this morning, and they do a comparison of the Busa v the GSXR1000, and they clocked their bike at 183.

They need to tuck the wingmirrors in. Another 5mph guaranteed.

Yeah, the vids a fake. As was mentioned, 150 on the road looks waaaaay faster than that.
