Jet powered motorcycle. I saw this tested on a motorcycle TV show last year. They tested it on a runway, and ran out of pavement before top speed was reached. The radar gun started blinking at 199, as it would not register 200. The acceleration was described as "exponential." Estimated top speed is 266 mph!! It has more torque than a Ford PSD. The jet came from a downsized helicopter engine.

All that for $150K. They used to be asking $225K last year, but it appears business has not been well. I guess the only people absoutely wacko enough to ride one, can't afford one, and insurance?? Forget it!
