The fastest motorcycle in the world is the Voxan Wattman. A spectacular electric motorcycle with the exaggerated power of 425 CV (317 kW). A force of nature capable of exceeding 400 kilometers per hour like nothing happened. A missile that MotoGP champion Max Biaggi has piloted, breaking record after record, reaching a speed of 455,737 km/h. Something unthinkable until now for a mount that is also very respectful of the environment, since for this purpose it is equipped with a 15.9 kWh electric battery. The most curious thing is that it surpasses itself and by far, since the previous record was held by this same mount with 407 km/h.

 

In the incomparable setting of the landing strip where NASA's space shuttles landed, the Shuttle Landing Facility at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the Voxan Wattman motorcycle has managed to set up to ten new speed records in a single acceleration. It has even been able to get to 466 kilometers per hour at some points in the test, although the valid record has been set at 456, as it was necessary to take out the means for two laps of the circuit. As established by the regulations of the International Motorcycling Federation: the official speed is measured after a fast start, over 1 km out and 1 km back, in a space-time of less than 2 hours.

The Voxan Wattman record falls within the category of semi-faired electric motorcycles weighing less than 300 kilos. This type of fairing is assembled in such a way that it is as aerodynamic as possible, while the power delivery is adjusted to consume the maximum energy in the shortest time, and get the most out of its electric motor. However, it has been necessary to use dry ice as a coolant to avoid overheating when the motorcycle was at maximum power. Thus avoiding the occurrence of breakdowns or deterioration in some of the components. Despite everything, the Italian rider explained when he got off the bike that the folds of his protective suit were burning him due to the strong vibrations produced by speed. Another aspect that caught the attention of the people present was the peculiar sound expelled by the engine, similar to an airplane taking off. MotoGP champion Max Biaggi on the Voxan Wattman.

Record with four wheels
The title of the fastest motorcycle in the world passes from one brand to another with amazing ease. Until very recently, the Dodge Tomahawk was branded as the fastest in history, although it could not be considered a typical two-wheeler since it was equipped with four high-traction tires. In addition, it was a beastly mole with a 20-valve Viper engine that propelled it with the equivalent of about 500 hp, reaching a speed of 536 km/h. Despite everything, its prohibitive price of more than 250,000 euros, weighed down sales that remained anecdotal as its own record.

 

Another ten two-wheeled bullets
The race to reach the top speed went through a turning point back in 1996 when Honda managed to break the 300 km/h barrier. It was with the CBR 1100 Blackbird, a mythical motorcycle that was joined in 1999 by the Suzuki GSX 1300R Hayabusa, whose nickname means 'peregrine falcon' in Japanese, and which ultimately was the seed of a good number of generations that always They have been among the fastest on the market.

Of those considered as street mounts, the Kawasaki Ninja H2R has held first place for the longest time with its 400 km/h, followed by the MTT Turbine Superbike Y2K with 365 and the Lightning LS-218 with 348 km/h. H. Fourth place was occupied by another Kawa Ninja, the ZX-14R with 335, while in fifth position was the Ducati Panigale V4R with 331 km/h. Then, in a slipstream, the Aprilia RSV4 1,100 RR Factory with 316, the Suzuki GSK 1300R Hayabusa with 312, the BMW S 1,000 RR with 303, the Honda CBT 1000 RR Fireblade with 298 and the Yamaha YZF R1 with 298 km/h.

 

Voxan Wattman has also broken another 30 albums, among which the following stand out:

One mile, quick start, non-aerodynamic: 368 km/h
Quarter mile, fast start, partially streamlined: 293 km/h
Quarter mile, kick start, non-aerodynamic: 285 km/h
One mile, standing start, partially streamlined: 273 km/h
One mile, standing start, non-aerodynamic: 260 km/h
One kilometer, standing start, partially streamlined: 223 km/h
One kilometer, standing start, non-aerodynamic: 219 km/h
Quarter mile, standing start, non-aero: 156 km/h
Quarter mile, standing start, partially streamlined: 149 km/h
