If a closely passing H2R or Hayabusa brings goosebumps
to your soul, this turbine powered 420 HP MTT 420RR will surely take things to
a next level. The name MTT has been heard before many times, mostly with the
legendary Y2K, which has been tagged as the first street legal turbine powered
motorcycle of the world.
Marine Turbine Technologies has delivered every 320
HP Y2K to the customer with 100 percent customization option, bringing their
favorite shades and patterns alive on this legend. After its
completion, the 420 HP MTT Street Fighter came into existence and brought more
fame to the brand name. Shortage of power was never a problem to MTT while the
designs were showing their age within the sharp and highly aerodynamic current age
motorcycles.
The new MTT 420RR is actually Race Ready superbike
and comes with a design which matches and even shames some of the renowned
performance bikes around the world. The new age motorcycle comes with a Rolls
Royce Allison – 250 – C20 Gas Turbine producing 420 HP @ 52,000 rpm and 678 Nm
of torque at just 2,000 rpm.
It comes mated to a 2-speed automatic gearbox and
weighs just 227 kg. The bike runs on a mixture of diesel and kerosene. While
the top speed is unknown at the moment, many sourced reveal it to be more than
440 km/h.
The last generation Y2K was once raced with a
Bugatti Veyron and the results were simply eye popping. The car went on to
touch 180 km/h in 5.4 seconds while the MTT bike was at 320 km/h. Imagine if it
was with 320 HP, the MTT 420 RR with 100 HP more can simply shatter all of the
records. The rider must have glued himself to the seat.
The design is mind blowing, the power figures feel
not for the ground and still it is the best 2 wheeled thing on Earth. Yes, it
can literally compete with anything and win without much effort. The long
wheelbase and carbon fiber parts make it really a stable machine. It even
offers a rear view camera and a LCD screen.
