Motorcycle + Gas Turbine = 286 Horsepower
Better be prepared to drop $150K and wait a while (only five made per year) but this is a gorgeous bit of work.
The MTT Turbine Superbike
As the leaders in turbine innovation, MTT has produced the ultimate in high performance machines: the MTT Turbine SUPERBIKE. The critically acclaimed SUPERBIKE is the world's first turbine powered street legal motorcycle in its class, and has been recognized by Guinness World Records as the "Most Powerful Motorcycle Ever to Enter Series Production" and the "Most Expensive Production Motorcycle". Powered by a Rolls Royce Allison gas turbine engine, the SUPERBIKE has demonstrated over 300 hp and 425 ft/lbs of torque on the Dyno Jet 200, and has been clocked at a record-breaking 227 mph.
Very pretty although I'm more of an older BMW kinda guy.
