I bet DGK could kick Jay Leno's ass on his turbo Hyabusa. DGK actually knows what he's doing. He rides in heavy traffic at 300+ km/h (his digital speedometer stops; probably legal reasons) and does wheelies at over 200 km/h. Man Jay Leno's got the money; DGK brings the skills. Anyone else watch the DGK DVD?

i heard that bike jay leno has melted a couple of bumpers at red lights.

gigdy 02-12-2004 08:58 PM

Id believe that the exhaust is supposed to be like 1200 degrees f

sentra_dude 02-12-2004 09:04 PM

That is a sweet bike...damn that is a lot of torque, almost 1 for every pound, that is insane.

PennStateFSAE 02-12-2004 09:14 PM

Sorry but if your riding through heavy traffic at 180 mph+ then your just an asshole. I read that Jay Leno said he bought the bike to be a part of the "more money then brains club". haha, if I was him I would have bought it just for the sound.

Sachmo12345 02-12-2004 09:24 PM

0-363 km/h in 15 sec

jpatino03 02-12-2004 09:30 PM

Holy shit. I though that that they had just made up that bike for the movie (torque...which sucked by the way.) That truly is ludicrous.

Jay Leno + motorcycle + tv show = very unstable contract.

I wonder what his insurance is like.

Gigdy who the hell is that body builder in your signature? Those muscles are terribly vomit inducing.
