DAYUM HOLY T*T BISCUIT!!
Is someone working on it already ??!
I almost fu**ing died watching this. o.o'
That is one mean sounding machine just ready to take off!!
I always thought sparks were only generated by grinding metal against metal? Or is it just bits of carbon being spat out the rear?
Great video SAS! ;D 8)

Lol yeh I though that too when I watched it. Apparently, they take the plugs out before these demonstrations and sprinkle in a handful of old rusty nuts and bolts. Which is why they stop revving after 5 minutes. In the background you can actually see the chief engineer crying. :o

LOL!! That should come with a warning not to try this at home! Hehe ;D

Isn't the spark coming from some unburned fuel ?
sounds great! if i had one, those stupid wings would be straight off ::)

lol , indeed ;D
Must be the rev limiter cutting in and bits of carbon from the exhaust pipe that makes the sparks
Jesus Mary!!! :o
I challenge the modders to make this bike. :P

Kawa style, Mazinga Z !!
And don't forget that Red Bull Gives You Wings ... the sponsoring is already decided :) :)

Flames yes, sparks no. Just for the wow effect probably. And the exaggerated flames too ... I wonder how long that exhaust can last if you ride it like that on track .. probably 3-4 laps.

Kawa style would be more like the 636. <3
You can't say this bike is ugly! (the 636)
For the exhaust, seems good according to some videos. I don't think they could sell super expensive bikes that can't achieve 10kms on tracks..
Kawa style is also the z1000: and I definitely can say it is fugly :)
Exhaust: I'd be they have tweaked something to make it look more spectacular for the demo, that's all.
MaX.
If i remember correctly, the sparks are coming from the exhaust. It's so hot it burns the sound dampening "wool", which results in sparks flying out the exhaust.

That does makes sense, though that would mean the sound dampening wool wouldn't last very long at that rate? Hehe ;D

Now thats how it should sound in GPB! on the the 4 strokes, not the whine we have now. I know you guys do your best but you dont have the means to record as some wish to do so. Maybe one day.
The fuel management is altered via the control panel on the dynojet to compensate for being in a room and to ensure no damage to the engine. If you study ALL of the videos of the H2R they show mainly the same. The sparks are probably due to carbon deposits being expelled at such a high temp due to being stationary and in a restricted controlled environment. As the bike is not traveling through a natural cooling air current, carbon will build quickly due to lack of air flow. The fans in front are for cooling the motor not so much the air intake, this alters the air/fuel mixture and is therefor compensated for to much of a degree, but can not compensate for the lack of fresh air the intake needs. There is NO dampening wool in the pipes. I spoke for a long time with the techs when I was meeting the public relation and marketing managers at the London show. The bike is STOCK with no SPECIAL show effects! It sounds so much better in real life than in the video. A must see if you get the chance.

The new z1000 is ugly. Not the old ones.

<troll>Sounds from tdu are amazing. :P :P</troll>
in general i like the design of the kawas BUT they screw up every bike with these exhaust-things
It forces to change them to badass akras and m4 :p
oh god, that bike is so damn ugly imo
>vin
Wasn't the point of the video. :|
