220 is pretty far fetched even with nitrous.. This is a good article for reference..

I only said far fetched, not impossible..so is another 100hp with a wet nitrous out of the question? stock motor hold together at 300hp?
Understand that after 30 some years of racing, I never say never...I have seen some pretty off the wall claims backed up at the track... I do not have real numbers for HP to MPH on the bike but if a guy can add 125hp to a stock bike and some taller gearing......
can a stock motor handle 100 shot?....not for long, even less if its not setup right. All depends on setup and amount fo usage. Odds are you will toss a rod.so is another 100hp with a wet nitrous out of the question? stock motor hold together at 300hp?

two other bikes that claim speeds that their hp could in theory do...I only said far fetched, not impossible..so is another 100hp with a wet nitrous out of the question? stock motor hold together at 300hp?

You gotta remember, dude never said he went 220 mph, just said it is a 220 mph bike.. Don't claim it until you've done it....
so tell me exactly how many hp it takes to go 220 on a bike with full fairings...I'm gonna go 450 mph tonight.. That is what the numbers will say on the piece of tape that I put on my speedo right behind the "70" mph indicated spot.. !!!
I'll let you guys know how it feels when I'm done !!!
any bike that I know of going that speed had in excess of 350 rwhp. HOWEVER, distance speeds were done on salt (high loss of power due to resistance and slippage) and the others were done in a standing mile (so the power may have been necessary for acceleration not top speed potential)so tell me exactly how many hp it takes to go 220 on a bike with full fairings...I'm gonna go 450 mph tonight..

Only As many as you had to use when they clocked you at 220 MPH... Then we will both know..so tell me exactly how many hp it takes to go 220 on a bike with full fairings...I'm gonna go 450 mph tonight..

the secret is the chrome windscreen..
The secret has been revealed !!!!the secret is the chrome windscreen..
only if you have the worst setup possible.prepare for a large rush on "chrome windscreens" .... we can sell them on ebay for anyone that wants 200mph huh?
Standing mile (Maxton) needs about 400hp to hit 220...
