    Something to keep the cagers awake when lane splitting

    Recently seen at Hamilton recently. Triumph Rocket with a Helicopter BK105 type jet turbine installed. Garages might short of Jet A1

    Wow. How much did he spend to have a 5 min warm up time and a top speed of 60k's.
    What a dick!

    It's still test running so with 700 plus HP quite a bit of caution is needed before letting it loose. He's a bloody good engineer and spent a bit if time getting to this stage, there's a lot going on in that turbine and a shit load of power to help it go wrong.

    Quadruple discs on each wheel. Plus an anchor on the pack rack I suppose...
