The MTT Y2K superbike is the world's first turbine powered street
legal motorcycle in its class, and has been recognized by Guinness
World Records as the "Most Powerful Motorcycle Ever to
Enter Series Production" and the "Most Expensive Production
Motorcycle". The Y2K is powered by a Rolls Royce Allison
gas turbine engine, and the superbike has demonstrated over
300 hp and 425 ft/lbs of torque
on the Dyno Jet 200, and has been clocked at a record-breaking
227 mph.
Representing the latest in engineering technology, the bike
features carbon fiber fairings, a rear mounted camera with LCD
color display, forward-and rear-looking radar detector with
laser scrambler, one touch "Smart Start" ignition,
and more. The MTT Turbine superbike is starring in the Warner
Brothers movie "TORQUE", and Men's Journal lists the
bike as one the most "awe-inspiring, innovative, and otherwise
amazing designs" in their feature article "Perfect
Stuff". With production limited to five per year, it's
no wonder the superbike has become a revolution.
