If the Y2K bike seemed overkill with its kerosene engine delivering 320 hp and mind-blowing speed and acceleration, prepare to be amazed, as the new machine is even more extreme.
Made famous by Jay Leno, MTT (Marine Turbine Technologies), the company which produced the insane Y2K helicopter turbine-powered motorcycle back in the day has a new trat in store.
MTT are getting the final touches to their newest creation, a motorcycle (in case we can still call it so) built around a Rolls-Royce C-20B gas turbine. This new insane vehicle is said to produce no less than 420 BHP, and is expected to reach 420 km/h (261 mph), while its acceleration would put to bitter shame pretty much anything with wheels.
The bike is now receiving wind tunnel tweaks and is touted “street legal” with European homologation also planned. The Y2K was as expensive as it was crazy and the new beast should be the same. First official street contact is expected in mid-summer.
