What Is the Fastest Motorcycle in the World – 2010?
When you’re talking about fast motorcycles, you need to make a clear distinction between those that are street legal and those that aren’t. This makes a big difference.
The definition of “street legal” changes a little state by state, so it is hard to say outright whether or not a specific motorcycle is “street legal”. For instance, in the state of California, motorcycles built after 1985 are limited to a certain noise level. Standing 50 feet away, the noise of the motorcycle’s engine must not be louder than 88 decibels. That number varies a little from state to state.

That’s why some of the world’s fastest motorcycles are perfectly legal to drive up and down a residential street, while other motorcycles are “prototypes,” meant to be driven on private tracks or in test runs.
The world’s fastest “non street legal” motorcycles are naturally going to pack a lot more power. Built without concern for road safety (usually as concept models for motorcycle designers) these bikes are pure theory on two wheels. The fastest motorcycles in the world are not meant for joy rides or to run down to the corner store for a pint of milk. These are pure speed demons built to test the limits of motorcycle design.
Here then are the fastest street legal motorcycles as well as the fastest concept motorcycles in the world.
