A few of us in another forum are talking about if it's possible to even hold onto a motorbike with no fairing or windshield at 300 mph. This is the bike in question, http://www.dodge.com/tomahawk/flash.html

Any idea what the drag co of this bike is, and how many kilograms of air pressure at 300 mph would be on the rider is?

I know there are a lot of unknown facts, but lets cut them down.

area being hit by wind, (air) 24 inches by 24 inches = 576 square inches

how many kilogrames per square inch would be on you at 300 mph with a wind speed of zero.

that number * 579

this about right?
