G Forces on a Hayabusa

[jellyrug]

From research it appears the average G force for a MotoGP rider is around 1.2G

Formula1 = 6G

And if the best I have heard from a Gen2 Busa is 2.4 seconds 0-60 it will be:

60 x 1609.34/3600/2.4 = average acceleration of 11.18 meters per second square.

11.18/9.806 = 1.14G

That’s what torque does for the Busa.

On the street, I for one have never pinned my Busa full throttle all the way into the red line in first gear.

How many have?

That’s an interesting breakdown. I wonder what G force the drag racers on their SuperBusa’s are pulling?

I think I’ve done that on every bike I’ve owned except this current 1000 bcuz the stupid wheel won’t stay down, comes up in 2nd too

That’s cool. Would love to see what that reads from a standing start, especially when the front wheel comes up.

My Prostreet bike has been 1.10 to the 60ft and 2.86 to the 330. With those numbers, average G's for the first 60ft would be 3.08, and average over the 330ft would be 2.5.

Not stock of course, and not on the street...

Uhh, I don’t think your G meter readout is accurate. Around 60 mph in a fairly lazy curve it showed a full half G. I reached a solid 1G once in a very hard corner in a Corvette I used to own. Felt like my neck snapped. So, 1/2 G @ 60?

Likely, as it's a feature built into the Hero 7.
But it feels so good

I have pinned everything I've ever ridden, right out of the gate too...I want to know exactly what I'm working with.
It really helps to know.
Cool to see the math too.

Gears 1 to 3 are muted from stock to prevent flip overs
Mine had limiters removed and secondary flies open sooner

Max peak G in 3rd 0.988
full throttle roll on from 40mph

Just think, the MotoGP riders accelerate to 200 or nearly 200 every lap for 20-25 laps (and) brake hard enough to lift the rear wheel over and over lap after lap. Wonder what the decel GS are.

Hi. I have pulled 3 G's in the Lola T 142 at Daytona.

Four wheels makes a big difference, why a Formula one apparently gets up to 6G in a corner and a bike has no chance against it. But that is what the internet says, so dunno how accurate it is.

Your B's are a lot bigger than mine.
3rd gear up to redline still makes me hold on for dear life.

That's a sub 10 second quarter mile pushing 150mph...we all have to hold on for those, lol

I’ve been 1.15 to the 60, didn’t realize it was almost 3g’s lol that’s cool. I need those pro stock 1.04 numbers tho, I need more money

Hi. I do not know 6G's seems like a lot maybe 4G's?

Apparently deceleration g’s can reach 2g.

How Brembo is dealing with a half tonne MotoGP bike + rider (under braking)

MotoGP braking g-forces have reached 2g, which makes bike (and rider) effectively weigh half a tonne on the brakes. Here’s what Brembo is doing about it…
