These bikes were so powerful they got banned, feared, or just vanished. Number one, Kawasaki H2R. Built for the track, but people tried riding it on roads. With over 300 horsepower, it wasn’t just fast, it was terrifying. No mirrors, no lights, and way too loud, so banned from the streets. Number two, Suzuki Hayabusa Gen 1. It shocked the world in 1999 by hitting speeds over 190 mph. Governments got scared. That’s when the speed limit packed between brands quietly began. Number three, MTY2K turbine bike. A literal jet engine on two wheels. Street legal, but only on paper. Most riders couldn’t handle it. It melted bumpers behind it. Some bikes weren’t made for the road. They were made to break it.

  1. The h2r was never intended to be street legal so it's not banned it's just not a street bike, people still be riding hayabusas everywhere and if you got the money you can ride that turbine bike

  2. Wow, I owned 3 bikes that were apparently banned, my 'busas were apparently illegal!
    I must say, as a former fighter pilot and a retired airline captain, I believe they should give me that turbine bike.. 😂

  3. People need to realize that their very life depends on two very small contact points, where your tires grip the road. These contact patches are ridiculously small, even on hyper bikes with huge rubber, the contact patches are two small rectangles, roughly 5 inches long and 3 inches wide on the average liter bike. These two areas are all you have, to stop a 200 mph 1500 pound rocket, or to hold it to the road during a high G curve.
    Scary thought.
