A 2006 production model BMW K 1200 S has set a world land speed record in the 1000 - 1350 cc stock, naturally aspirated motorcycle class at Utah's famed Bonneville Salt Flats. The motorcycle, piloted by 56-year-old Andy Sills, of San Francisco, CA, reached an average speed of 173.57 mph and top speed of 176.789 mph
Sills, who began making his mark on the Bonneville Salt Flats four years ago and who holds the world 80cc and 100cc motorcycle streamliner records, also clocked a record speed of 169 mph, riding the K 1200 S two-up with passenger Erin Hunter. The pair received a standing ovation from a cheering crowd of fellow competitors as they made their way into the pits.
The first paragraph is IMPRESSIVE.. the second paragraph is INSANE!! I can't imagine DRIVING that fast, let alone hanging onto the back end!!
