YTF would they need a Hayabusa honestly! is that really necessary to give cops a bike that goes that fast they're just gonna kill themselves trying to catch the speeders that really dont want to be caught. it looks like a size of a small boat probably handles like one to. just take a few sharp corners and hide lol haha

Any bike will outhandle a car. Running from a cop on a busa would just be dumb.

Disagree ++

agree ++

I call horseshit. Very few bikes will out run a set up car on the twistys. Straight line is an entirely different kettle of fish. The "busa's" are good for about 300 plus kph with acceleration from hell.

Dont sweat it, Its only a temporary thing. I remember before most of you were born when bike cops were all the rage. As the pediatric ward of the local hospitals filled up with cop motorcyclists they began to dissapear till the only time you saw them were at official functions doing escort duty.

The current cash scrapped government is looking to garner as much revenue as they possibly can for the least amount of outlay.

A fat sports bike costs way less to put on the road than a car so they'll go that way till enough of them get hurt that compo claims start to outweigh the returns.

Can they ride, Bet your sweet arse they can, These guys live on their machines day in and day out. They get pretty damn good at it.

Half the braking distance and twice the acceleration I don't see a situation were you wouldn't get caught running from the cops if they're on a bike.

[Bunta]

bikes are shit at braking last time i rode one?

[Beelzebub89]

rode a shit bike?

[Beelzebub89]

I would wager any of the current crop of supersports bikes would outbrake the majority of road cars that are going to be running from them.

[FineLine]

rode a shit bike?

Over a standard family car maybe maybe they brake better but not a modified vehicle with tricked out suspension and brakes.

And they have about 1/3 the cornering speed. they have no f**king rubber on the road to speak of. Go do some research.

The best super bike times cant get within a bulls roar of car times on a race track, even with their obvious power to weight advantage on the straights.
