Well, how 'bout this -- count the number of "crossovers" on the left as he's going by. I've usually seen those spaced on highways at no less than 1-mile increments... which means he went 4 miles in 1 minute. If that's the case, he really was doing something on the order of 240mph. Can't tell without knowing the precise distances and all, but... Just sayin'.
Those bikes are quite capable of doing it. I haven't ridden the 'Busa, but I rode the K1200, which will do the ton in 1st gear out of 6. Believe me, I tested it. And the Busa will dust the K1200 on the top end. Wouldn't be rocket science to hot one up to push those sorts of speeds.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why I no longer pay attention to sportbikes -- there is no reason in ****** anybody should have that sort of juice on the street, especially not an irresponsible idiot like myself with impulse-control issues.
