The Chris Carr piloted BUB Seven is now the fastest motorcycle in the world, completing a record-breaking run at the Bonneville Salt Flats this afternoon with a 362.742 entry speed, 367.809mph mile, 367.953mph kilometer and 372.534mph exit speed. All that with a 3.0-liter, turbocharged, 500bhp V4. The previous record was 360.913mph, set by Team Ack Attack last year.

Looks like a 2 wheeled car...

Or wingless plane.

One wheel in front, one in back, both aluminum because at that speeds tires fall apart, and 2 outriggers for low speed stability or it will tip over.

I'm waiting for this record to be beat by this bike

Interesting the 1km speed was higher than the 1 mile speed. Sounds like they could squeeze another .1 to .2mph out of that.

Other than simply having 2 wheels, how can that even be considered a motorcycle.

But can it wheelie?

sure, but where do you mount the saddle bags and the GPS?
