Turn up your speakers! 5 cameras capture Team Corbin posting a top speed of over 208 MPH at the Bonneville Salt Flats! This particular run by Chance Darling was clocked at 197.629 MPH!

  • What kind of bike and Motor is this?

  • The bike is a custom built, partial streamliner. The motor is a turbo charged, alcohol burning 900cc Triumph Speedtriple motor. It ran very strong. Thanks for asking!

  • really nice vid =]

    not the most adrenaline pumping ive ever seen as they do over 200mph on normal country roads at the isle of man tt and north west 200 but definately a great vid 4* =]

  • Thanks for the comments but please realize that racing on a salt surface is completely different than racing on a paved surface. An "apples compared to oranges" kind of thing...

  • Nice video!!! 200mph on the salt is great. Completely different than on asphalt. Good Job.

  • @RavenCar traction is alot less correct? and slat causes alot more friction which is making motor work harder reach 200 mph so bike on long pave road could reach what 250+?

  • The video was siiiick!!!

    

  • Check this, this is modern engine, modern technology, rised by megaminds and for huge money, Burt Munro had 1928 Indian Scout rised from 600ccm till over 900 ccm in a shed. This bike above is good, but its not impresive.

  • I didn't realize the salt surface robbed speed, guess it makes sense though. Is there a formula? What would that thing do on asphault?

  • sorry, 5 cams. forgot the start line...

  • yes, sorry i reacted that fast! but personally i like 1 cam (on the front) more than 4 cams. maybe because i'm dreaming to drive on bonneville. as a driver you don't look behind ya while driving... except burt munro ofcourse haha.

    thanks anyway for this video!
