First set, unofficially, by [[Glenn Curtiss]] in 1903, the first officially-sanctioned [[Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme|FIM]] record was not set until 1920. There was controversy over the 1930 record, when [[Osborn Engineering Company|OEC]] claimed to be fastest, on the basis of a publicity photo taken before a [[Zenith Motorcycles|Zenith]] went quicker. "It was quite a while before the controversy died down."

The fastest record certified by the FIM is that set in 1964 by the [[jet engine|jet-propelled]] [[tricycle]] ''[[Spirit of America]]''.  It set three [[land speed record|absolute land speed record]]s, the last at 526.277mi/h.  While such records are usually validated by the [[Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile]], the FIA only certifies vehicles with at least four wheels, while the FIM certifies two- and three-wheelers.

Latest revision as of 10:29, 25 July 2009


The motorcycle land speed record is the fastest speed achieved by a motorcycle on land. It is standardized as the speed over a course of fixed length, averaged over two runs in opposite directions.

First set, unofficially, by Glenn Curtiss in 1903, the first officially-sanctioned FIM record was not set until 1920. There was controversy over the 1930 record, when OEC claimed to be fastest, on the basis of a publicity photo taken before a Zenith went quicker. "It was quite a while before the controversy died down."


Jet-engine trike

The fastest record certified by the FIM is that set in 1964 by the jet-propelled tricycle Spirit of America. It set three absolute land speed records, the last at 526.277mi/h. While such records are usually validated by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile, the FIA only certifies vehicles with at least four wheels, while the FIM certifies two- and three-wheelers.


Piston-engine bike

The holder of the absolute record for motorcycles is the "fastest man on two wheels". All such records have been with piston-engine machines.
