Fastest production bike in the world.

MTT Turbine Superbike, 227mph

This highly-exclusive bike is powered by a rebuilt Rolls-Royce jet turbine engine. Yep, you read that right – a jet-engined bike that can be used on the street. After trying it out, one journalist said: “It feels like bungee-jumping, except with the bungee pulling you forwards rather than upwards.” The bike, which produces 320 horsepower, was manufactured by Marine Turbine Technologies of Franklin, Louisiana, USA. It holds the Guinness World Record for the fastest production bike ever made.

I don't know about anyone else, but I think you'd have to crazy to get on one of these things. Or have a death wish.

Having survived one major bike accident, I'm not prepared to risk my neck again. I was lucky to survive. I was on a little travelled back road. I was fortunate to have my wreck in front of the house of an off-duty paramedic. How lucky is that? I suffered multiple contusions and a lacerated liver. Spent 24 hours in intensive care. I'll leave the need for speed to those young fools who think they're indestructible. I know better.
