Jet Engine Bike! Turbine Powered MTT Y2K Motorcycle

Turbine Powered MTT Y2K Superbike

Holds a Guinness World Record as the fastest and most expensive production motorcycle at over $300,000. Power comes from a Rolls Royce Allison Turboshaft engine producing 420 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque at 52,000 RPM and runs on Diesel, kerosene, and biofuel, all with very similar make-ups to Jet fuel Rather than using the turbine thrust to move the bike, power is directed through a 2-speed automatic transmission sending power to the rear wheel.
The bike weighs 500lbs and has a top speed of 273 miles per hour and hit 240 miles per hour on a 1-mile straight
Jay Leno tested one and said the exhaust gases were so hot it melted cars bumpers behind the bike.

It's a beautiful bike you can take the turbine engine off and put a regular motor on it and it would still be a badass bike having that jet engine on it that's just a plus it's a robot cop and say hey brother catch me if you can
