311 MPH on a sit-on bike
« on: July 17, 2011, 08:48:46 AM »
Bill Warner just rode into the History books. 311 MPH on a sit-on motorcycle. This is the first full pass on the bike as yesterday the winds were strong and did not allow a full run. I have been around LSR for 40 years, never thought I would see this, it is just amazing. The power level was no where near it's maximum. 300 in the mile can be done. Congrats Bill, you are the man.   LSL

Can't even imagine going that fast on a sit-on! Congrats Bill. That record will stand for a while.

Open roadsters over 300 and now a scooter.
