its a fake. No way at 100mph can you see the space like that inbetween the white lines. I'd say at 100mp hes going around 50, maybe 60mph.

+1... at 220mph those highway turnarounds would pass by a lot quicker

KPH are shown as the smaller numbers on the inside while MPH are shown on the outside of the circle.

Possible.......But remember, the percentage of speedo error will decrease the MPH from 220.

If thats on a Haybusa that video has been around a long time. I think the bike was re-geared which throws off the speedo making it read high...

No way that is real. For starters it should take a little longer to get to 220. Secondly the white lines at 220 should be a blur. The speedo has to be messed with.

yeah, it is a fast bike, but he didnt get it up that fast, just look at the road lines and the turn around, and even the trees going by, its all going by EXTREMELY slow for the speedo to read 220
