What an amazing thing to do on a conventional motorcycle. 300mph is utterly breathtaking I'm sure. Terribly tragic and a sad loss. I hope someone continues the great quest. Rocket in England |

I would like to go fast but not that fast on an open motorcycle. I am not sure that any wreck on a bike at close to 300 is surviveable except maybe in a streamliner. Does anyone know what Bill Warner hit if anything? I have been told that what made Bonneville safe was there was nothing to hit. |

Hitting the salt even at low speed can be fatal. Hitting it at high speed which is what, anything over 70mph, who knows. Anywhere between 150 and 300mph I could not imagine. Rocket in England |

There is a you tube video of "racin Jason" mcvicars get off at over 240mph. Just some bruise I think. |

Hey Paul, good to see you here. Hope you're well. Remember on the Salt trying to hammer tent pegs in. Solid as concrete is not too far off a good description! Except for the odd rooster tail, lol! Rocket in England |
