Every motorcycle enthusiast is something of a speed demon at heart. After all, there aren’t many experiences as freeing as the tug of wind against your body as you zoom past the world on your trusty bike. The rush of adrenaline as the scenery blurs together accompanied by the roar of the engine- these are the quintessential pleasures of the vehicle when compared to cars.
Both the consumer markets and the professional racing tracks have become the venue for this competition between bike companies. Being the manufacturer of the fastest superbike ever produced is a coveted title, after all.
This metaphorical ‘arms race’ has led to the ultra-high-performance bikes of today, which incorporate the best of what different fields of engineering has to offer. From the design of the engines and chassis to the tire and wheels and even the fuel, these mechanical marvels of today are the culmination of almost a hundred years of innovation over the base design, and they’re only getting better by the year.
It should be noted that because of circumstances, the major motorcycle manufacturers had agreed to limit the maximum top speed of their manufactured road-safe bikes to 186mph or 300kmph, which is known as the “Gentleman’s Agreement”.Of course, as an informal agreement, it didn’t quite have the legal weight to completely stop companies from producing models which exceeded the top speed.
With that out of the way, if you’re a daredevil with a need for outrageous top speeds, team Motorcycle Valley brings you the Top 10 Fastest Motorcycles available for purchase in 2021:
