This isn't the one but they claim 354Kmh

Ghostrider - Hayabusa Turbo 499bhp! 354 kmh wheelie top speed! - Howling GSXR Exhaust - Monster Busa - YouTube

There was a whole series of about 15 minute videos of some bloke on a Hyabusa riding through traffic on freeways in Eastern Europe at around 300 kph. Some of the things he did were truly scary but amazing to watch.
I remember playing one of the videos on a super screen we had at QLd Raceway at one of our FX rounds in the lunch break and the crowd stayed glued to the hill and the track shop didn't sell bugger all food.
Then several wowsers came down to the track office and complained that it was irresponsible to play videos like that.

I think he made about half a dozen or so of these videos that were sold world wide before he supposedly stopped making them rather abruptly mid video because of a car v bike incident.

This video you put up Phillip is quite similar and possibly it was the Ghost rider but my memory fails me. One thing I will say though, doing anything over 200 kph on a Nakedbike is very uncomfortable and your holding on for grim life, doing the speeds that guy is doing on a. Nakedbike would be truly scary and how he is holding on to it is beyond me.
