Publisher Description:

Motorcycles are made for speed--but some get there louder and faster than others You'll need your toughest gear to ride the turbo-charged MTT Turbine Superbike Y2K--perhaps the most powerful (and expensive) road bike ever. Blow past speeds of 200 mph (320 km/h) with the Kawasaki Ninja of the Night. Ride the world's fastest production motorcycle, the Suzuki Hayabusa, and hit 188 to 194 mph (303 to 312 km/h). Hang on tight as detailed illustrations take you on the road, around the track, and across salt flats on these powerful bikes. Get the latest facts on how they reach those extreme speeds--and stay on the road.
