From a car, not a bike, but this is incredible on-board footage from the record-setting run. Check out his heart rate - starts about 90, and appears to peak around 192bpm.

about 6:20 into the run he's on the rev limiter in 6th gear.

Damn.

I noticed that too. Looked like it was right around 250 km/h (155mph).

Damn, looks like a video game.
Fast revs! Gearing seemed perfect for course despite hitting the rev limiter at that one spot.
