You're right about the Hayabusa though, nothing (carwise and (stock) bikes) can really outpull one over 150mph - all these videos of cars beating Busas, well, it's because it's one thing to drive 160mph in a car on a public road with bumps and traffic ruts, and a whole different ballpark to do 160mph on a bike. You can come off a MotoGP bike at that speed and live because you're on a track with gravel traps and you've 99% lowsided, but even with full riding gear, if you come off a bike at 160mph on a street, you've lost stability and you're tank-slapping, highsiding, you'll die and they'll be collecting your corpse in 3-4 pieces.
