There is no way that is 220mph, I suspect that he has interfered with the the spedo drive gear. I used to ride bikes at silly speeds, and I would say it may only be half of what he was reckoning. The speedo is rising just a wee bit too quickly for my liking and with the wheel being up until "140 mph", it doesn't give you a good chance to assess the lower speeds are comparable to what we all know.

Things do look different on camera tho, the turbo busa is capable of doing that sort of speed. i have seen one go and you would be supprised, i think there is only two in the country the fastest i have been on a bike is only 115 so not much to compare with the scenery, but i would say that this vid could be real.

I agree, the bike may be capable of that sort of speed, but I have driven / rode at 150+ (never on public highways of course). Just looking at the lines / junctions passing by IMHO, I would still say that half of the calimed speed is more likely.
