awesome, that Volvo must have monster power. BTW I know which I'd rather be in control of at that speed, and it isn't the crouch rocket. ;)

Although i love bikes and have had loads it appears towards the end of the vid the R1 hit around 184mph which would be its limit, from what i could see the volvo was still opening up a gap :)
