Talking Video : T Rex (1400 cc) Vs M6

Ben away for a while
Just thought I'd drop by and share this video with my friends over here

It of a chance encounter we just had with a T Rex on a summer run
The fact file on the T Rex is
-2-seat T-Rex 3 wheeler
-powered by a 1200cc engine
-weighs a mere 410kg (900lbs)


Was curious to know whether any of you have had run ins with one and how it fared

Yes I know its but please indulge me. This is where I always post.
Cheers

A 750 would eat that thing for lunch,the ones to watch out for are the 1300cc Hayabusa models,then a Velocity turbo system bolted on for roughly 400+ wheel horsepower is a force to be reckoned with

Underpowered&slow in my opinion off the floor

But the bike only weighs 400lbs(half the weight of the Trex)A nice power to weight ratio of 1lb/1hp makes for a fun ride

Back in my crazier days I owned a Mr Turbo powered GSXR 1100, bored to 1290 that made over 400 at the wheel. You have not experienced a thrill until you have felt wheel spin accompanied with the front wheel coming off the ground at 150 mph. Equally insane was one of my heavily modded nitous powered CBR 900RR's with a 100 shot and stock wheelbase. 150 mph wheelies where the norm on that thing. I can't even image what they are doing with turbos on these bikes now days, you can pick up a bone stock GSXR 1000 or ZX10 with 175 whp for under $12,000 otd, throw on a pipe, Power Commander and 100 shot and be making over 300whp, on a sub 400 pound bike, all for about $15,000.
