    Guy Martin to attempt 400mph run

    I know there was some talk about Guy Martin doing a Bonneville Salt Flats run a couple months ago. Don't know what happened with that.
    But now he is prepping to attempt a 400mph run. What a madman, love this guy.

    Interesting choice of motor as most people with a 600 supersport have claimed getting close to those speeds on local highways.

    Motorcycle streamliners DO NOT COUNT .

    One must stradle a motorcylce . No cockpit , fire supression system and parachutes to stop.

    Bill Warner and a Gen 1 Suzuki Hayabusa are still the king of speed .

    So 400mph on land. At what point do you stop and consider swapping your massive steel balls for carbon fiber ones?
