WOW!.... This is an interesting question!.... I am going to stick my neck out and say this....
In the context of the time and date that A LOT of the streamliner records have been set, you will see that, unless you look at BUB/AMA, where a scant few of the 3000cc records have recently been set at speeds comparable to the equivalent sized engines in a 4 wheeled vehicle, that a lot of the existing motorcycle records were set in an era that is now long gone.... the car records have been fairly actively challenged and, often, have been successfully set ever higher .... the motorcycle records have NOT been challenged anywhere near as often.
The biggest reason that I, as a 40+ year veteran of land speed racing and a former motorcycle competitor, can see and possibly relate to, is that building a motorcycle streamliner is not something that the average motorcycle enthusiast has much interest in taking on. The people who have built streamliner motorcycles over the past 40 or so years have often been the "same" group of people - i.e Vesco's, Sam Wheeler, Dennis Manning etc... many of the attempts that have shown up over the decades have not met with a lot of success - the handling of a motorcycle streamliner remains at what I would call an "inexact science".... You need only to look at the efforts of Harley, Honda and Kawasaki back in the 70s, Vesco's all throughout land speed history, Dennis Manning, Jammer, Tatro's, Vance Breese etc.... The "fact" that the crash ratio is very high with 2 wheeled streamliners vis-a-vis 4 wheeled streamliners is pretty much enough to make most of us who want to go "real fast" to try it a "different way" - even with motorcycle power.... that "different way" is often or usually with 4 wheels.... the handling of a 4 wheeled streamlined vehicle is NOT IN ANY WAY comparable to a 2 wheeled streamliner (there are "experts" who will tell you this).... thus, a decision as to the mode of "transportation" gets made according to empirical data in regards to crash statistics and other factors....
In our own personal situation, we were "knocking on the door" of 200 MPH in the late 1970s (we had a turbocharged Kawasaki KZ1000 that was probably capable of 235 mph a way back then - traction was our big issue).... and with families, businesses and insurance issues with which to grapple, we decided that roll cages and four wheels was a somewhat more logical method of pursuing our land speed racing goals... We started out with a massively rebuilt Chevy Vega coupe that has, in its most recent formm gone well over 250 mph and, subsequent to the successful competition with that vehicle over the past 25 or so years, we built a lakester - an open wheeled "special construction category car that is a current record holder in its class and is capable of way over 280 mph.... incidentally, the car steers with one hand....
I do hope that several other of the "heavyweights" also weigh in on this thread for you....
