Formula Extreme Hayabusa..

[HillbillyTom]

Noticed a reference to the bike in the "10 Years Ago" column of my new Roadracing World magazine.
So I went looking for it. Rad Greaves, and the FX Hayabusa, circa 2002.. Dailymotion - RADBUSA AMA Hayabusa World Record Chrome Bike - a Sports & Extreme video

One more chapter amongst many, in the lifespan of an amazing motorcycle.

By the way...did you catch the 800,000 dollars they had used setting the bike up? I don't know this guy's name...I am sure he probably was a top race guy and had the pull to get that kind of money thrown at his bike project...wow is all I have to say...2hip
