For most people, Hayabusa and ZZR1400 are more or less sufficiently powerful. Not for the Oz-based Potato Masher though, who probably thinks normally-aspirated, 1400cc, 190bhp inline-fours are for pansies (not bandits tho). Which is why he’s built his own motorcycle – powered by a supercharged, 8.2-litre V8 taken off a monster truck.Called the Rapom V8, Masher's bike runs on pure alcohol and packs more than 1,000 horsepower. It weighs more than 500kg (same as Masher), so power-to-weight ratio isn’t nearly as good as a new GSXR1000 or R1, but acceleration is still phenomenal – the Rapom goes from zero to 100km/h in less than three seconds, and does the quarter-mile in less than seven seconds. Madness…

Sad truth is that the proposed motorcycle will still lack sufficient power to address the enormity of potato's arse Smile

Here's a much better idea, Suzuki should get their technology back and make a supercar.

V8 from Hayabusa Motors
