@Gimpthulhu 7 місяців тому

I vaguely remember Jay Leno telling a story about riding his Y2K. As he told it, he was waiting at a red light and the exhaust was putting out so much heat that when the car behind him creeped up too close, its front bumper got warped.

I got to see and hear one of these bikes in 2000. I was going to school at MMI in Phoenix and at the time only 2 of them had actually been produced, the one MTT brought to MMI for us to see and the one that Jay Leno owned. The sound of the engine spinning coming from a motorcycle is insane. Such a cool bike!

Was it red with y2k on the side owned by one of the richest people in Arizona? I just seen the guy you talking about in a video with the bike super cool

The output drive is centered around the swingarm pivot which means the chain tension never changes regardless of the swingarm position...Ideal!

@G58 4 роки тому

HeroRR Considering how successful your channel is, you could complain. If enough channel owners called them out in their behaviour, maybe they might consider not doing it. The fact is they’ve been messing with users’ data for years. Updates and notifications from many of the channels I’m subscribed to have been hidden, subscriptions have been cancelled, and watch lists edited without my consent or knowledge. Google only gets away with it because no one ever says anything. Oh, and the 20th Century ended on 31st December 2000, not 1999. Yeah, I know everyone celebrated then, but they were obviously wrong - unless there are only 999 years in a century. :) Peace Ride safe bro

Wow love the idea of the y2k would be awesome to see them put the engine in the Tron bike 😜 I liked the video clip from Torque too

@bocahdongo7769 4 роки тому

MTT Y2K not only lack of low-end torque due to very tall gearing, but also it's a natural design of turbine engine (or any mechanical device that involve turbine as main component) that has very pathetic efficiency in lower RPM a.k.a. designed to spin in specific RPM (usually almost as high as maximum RPM). That's why Y2K also has ridiculously high horsepower for it's size.

The Y2K is Science gone wrong, but still got it right. No way i should be on the street. But it needs to exist. Can't say i agree with you that the original Y2K looks "futuristic" though. It looks like a 1980's stretch sport bike with too large exhausts.

@zweispurmopped 4 роки тому

I know the Allison C25 turbines from back in my day s in helicopter maintenance. An excellent choice for such use, these buggers will take anything you throw at them, plus the sounds they make on start-up just are are a show of their own. I wonder why the exhausts were turned to blow sideways on the newer models, though. I guess in city traffic, you could just let the exhaust push you along in idle. Also I would like to know how great the average range of those bikes is. I remember the BO105, which was driven by two of those turbines, had a tank capacity of some 500 litres which it burnt through in some 3½ hours…
