Ummmmm...not quite. Still can't match the dirty old Harleys from 1990. They managed 322mph/518kph, a record that stood for a record 16 years. Took two turboed Suzuki engines to beat it. Nice try though.

Impressive stats and engineering tho

The Triumph Infor Rocket features a carbon Kevlar monocoque construction with two turbocharged Triumph Rocket III engines producing a combined 1,000 bhp at 9,000 rpm.

So you'll be aware that he rode the world's fastest Triumph? A loooong way short of the landspeed record.

Well he did become the fastest Triumph after 46 years and tripling the engine capacity they originally used, edit: and turboing them

This attempt was just the team and Martin learning how to drive the thing, but it was a promising start. They are due back at Bonneville at the end of the month to attempt to reach 400mph.
