Last week I wrote a bit about the fastest motorcycle in the world – the Dodge Tomahawk.
Problem is that the Dodge Tomahawk is a concept model and that it isn’t street legal, so here is a top 5 of the fastest street legal motorcycles in the world.
Ducati Desmosedici RR
320 km/h (199 mph)
MV Agusta F4 1100 CC
315 km/h (196 mph)
MV Agusta F4 1000 MT Tamburini
307 km/h (191 mph)
Kawasaki ZX-12R Ninja
305 km/h (189 mph)
Suzuki GSX 1300 R Hayabusa
300 km/h (186 mph)
I think your specs are lil bit outdated. for instance you have to check out the 2008 hayabusa and the kawasaki zx14.specs have really changed
The Honda Blackbird 1100xx had a 205mph. But the Busa is a beast… The Ducati must of had a tail wind. lol
what about Triumph Speed Triple
huh??
hayabusa at 300kmh??
forget it..
I hate to see dat busa! Dat bike is so ugly! But it’s really fast. But i’ll always back the ducati no matter how many bikes are made faster dan it. I love it Lol.
The Suzuki Hayabusa @ 300 kph? you guys on dope……………..its limiter is set to 300, if you remove the limiter with any mods to the bike, it clears 335 kph………you may want to do some better research!
yeah…sure…Italians never had a fast bike…just fancy and nice…lol…See more video on net and you will se what happen when you driving Busa without limiter. Your Ducati and MV Agusta had top speed without limiter. Every Ducati is 280 limited.
5 fastest street legal bikes is: 1. Suzuki Hayabusa 1300 GSX-R…….342km/h…without limiter…stock with 175hp@9950rpm~(10000rpm).
2. Kawasaki ZX12-R………336km/h…stock with 192hp
3. Kawasaki ZX14-R………331km/h…stock with 197hp
4. Honda CBR 1100-XX Fireblade…….326km/h with 185hp.
5. Suzuki GSX-R 1000………………..323km/h with 184hp
than 6. Yamaha R1………………………….321km/h…with 180hp
7. Kawasaki ZX10-R…………………..321km/h……184hp
Your MV and Ducati is on 10th and 9th place.
So uh now would be a good time to mention the Y2K, and yest it’s street legal.
older hayabusa’s go 200+
what about the 92 honda rebel? that bike is pretty fast. i hav one so i should know
i agreed with shizzledizzle.
busa is the best.no can overtake it especially with ducati n mv
heyy,,, whrz MMT productions Y2K..???
its street legal,,and a record speed of 227 mph (365 km/h)….
i think its fastest of all,,,,(talking abt streetlegal only, leave alone THE DODGE)
(wid just 2 gear speed box….)
nd i have heard tht MTT has planned to launch its new bike with 420horsepower engine,, 100 greater than what the provided earlier…,,
fosure hahaha 92 Honda Rebel?? Can those hit 100?? hahaha
yea i have a xx and i thought it was about 2nd
i still think the kawasaki kz1000 a1 model is 1 of the top 5 cuz it tops ot at 275km/h
these stats are all wrong. the hybusa is 205mph.
What about the 98 zx9r top speed 179mph first sub ten production bike? and Zx10
gxr1000?
I have always been a fan of DUCATI ev’ry now and then. Definitely DUCATI is fast…..
Please my custom fabricated bike with a 1995 Ford Taurus Yamaha SHO motor tops out at 310hp and does the 1/4 mile in 4.3 seconds at 178mph and has top speed of 250+ I aint found tires I trust going that fast.
As far as i know Suzuki Hayabusa is the worlds fastest street legal motorcycle
What about the Busa turbo is that street legal?
no the Hybusa top 5 gear at 190 and there is a 6 gear and it tops over 220 and look at this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxP_DaOEqek go to that
99-01 Hayabusa topped out at 227mph. After 01 a limiter was added, 6 gear will top out at 11k rpm’s. If the bike has the rev limiter “removed” it becomes NON PRODUCTION and is considered modified which takes it to a whole new category. Most motorcycles now have a limiter on them and their top speed is not truthful, you can thank congress for that. The Y2k bike should be on here, it doesn’t have a limiter because of the type of engine was not restricted and was basically unheard of in 01. Plus the price tag makes it very rare.
You guys are all incorrectly informed. The fastest bike can be any bike modified post-production. Just get a larger K&N, free-flow, Aftermarket exhausts, suspensions, gera-boxes, clutches, bearings, etc. So officially the fastest street-legal bike is undoubtedly the Busa, followed closely by the Y2K, the Blackbird, the Duc-1098, the R1 and the ZX11R… in that order!!!
Peace!
Ego let it go and the truth shall follow , i have a 14 and conceed the busa is quicker , keep in mind ppls that in order to place a top speed temp , HUMIDITY , QNH(air preasure) fuel quality , riders balls ect are all factors that will make big differences on engine preformance , so in conclusion this is not an exacting science :p ……..seen the duke do 315 km/h at Phillip island , not a standard producttion motocycle!
So i have a completely stock 07 gsxr 600 that i had up to 196mph on the PA. turnpike. Find it hard to believe that the top speed of the 1000cc is barely over 200!
I heard a rumor that the Dodge Tomohawk could be made street legal.
[...] Moving up the list we encounter the Dodge Tomahawk with 10 cylinders. The Dodge Tomahawk is the fastest motorcycle in the world if you accept that it’s not a production model (check out the fastest production motorcycles). [...]
The Y2K will go 227mph box stock,on street fuel,no mods.
That is the fastest,box stock.
This was seen on TV,racing a flying L-39 Albatros jet from a standing start and winning(still on YouTube).
In 1999,the protype consistently shut down exixting police radar and
Dynojet dyno’s at 200 mph,hence the name,a joke on the looming computer problem.
Anyway,as for the Tomahawk,motorcycles don’t have 4 wheels…
unless you count training wheels.
That is to say,the bike shut down the Dynojet and Radar COMPUTERS,
hence the Y2K name,as a joke.
Also,the original protype had no onboard computer and was essentially built by human hands without computer assistance,so you could have said that it was
“Y2K compliant”.
busa is definitely fastest wheel driven bike and y2k fastest all time street legal production but it is turbine driven, does not drive the wheels. The Duc and August are awesome handling bikes and much lighter the any of the bikes produced out of Japan … but lets face it anything near 300kph with 175bhp+ is a fuckin’ wild ride and just a rush!!!
HELLO, MY NAME IS DALE.
I may not know everything there is to know about motorcycles, most of my motorhead years were spent on musclecars. I do remember the first time I went 120 miles an hour in less than a quarter mile, was on a dual overhead cam inline 4 cylinder honda motorcycle in the 70’s.
Some of you old timers can remember those days. I can every time I go out to my garage and fire up my 1985 ( the original ) Yamaha V-MAX. 145 HP of V-4, dual overhead cam, 4 valves per cylinder rocket ship on two wheels. How could you forget MR. MAX?
Do the research, the 119 hp bikes did not have the V-Boost, they were sold overseas, the 145 hp bikes were sold in the U. S. Even in California, (motorcycles didn’t have the enviromental restrictions other motor vehicles had.)
Just the same, the ol V-MAX, still goes, 1-50 in first gear, 50-85 in second, 85-105 in third, 105 -135+ in 4th. (that is the last time you can look down at the speedomoter before you hit 5th gear) At last glance you notice at around 140mp,
you are up there, but not that close to red-line, Once you hit 5th, you can’t take your eyes off the blur directly in frount of you. It is, something you have to experience yourself. I have rode the fastest amusment rides in Southeren California,Magic mountian, Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm, etc. All I can tell my familly is, Not nearly as fast as the old MR. Max,
Why it is not in your list just means you never rode one.
i hate hayabusa.
i wanna be a worldfaster bike rider & i would like 2 tell u that i m a fan of superfast ducati bike only.
Check out the Norton Nemesis. Quicker than anything posted here.
Street legal but they only built 2 due to funding.
240bhp, 1.5l v8
I have personally seen a older Hayabusa do a 202mph! I don’t have pictures, or
vids to prove, it. It wasn’t even my bike, it was a friends, But it was clocked by a
Tennessee State trooper off duty on a blocked off safe Road.
MTT streetfighter launched in 2008 runs at a top speed of 402.2km/h……….
include this too……..
