Can't add to much to this other than watch the video. Lance Armstrong should of had one of these!

Wow. Fran there did great work recovering that yaw that would have had me doing a Wile E. Coyote at his worst. Thanks for sharing.
Scares me and I'm not afraid of anything. I'll stick to my mountain bike,goes my speed.

Wow! I feel pretty tense when I get my motorcycle going over seventy...What is propelling it?...Appears to be a rocket motor perhaps.

Had one about 60 when I was a kid. Wiped out the entire front end when I hit a rock that was in the rut on the dirt road my brother and I were running downhill on (1 mile hill, my dad said he had done it in a minute when he was a kid). Was cool enough that I wore out a lot of clothes instead of hide.

How did he keep the baseball cards in his spokes at 200 mph?
Notice the ambulance and fire trucks were alreday on scene!
I'm betting the race would change significantly at the entry to turn 1.

I had a bad spill from my bike a couple weeks ago at 10 mph. At 200 I would imagine the fire truck would be able to do little more than clean the pavement.

I would still rather have that "slow" Ferrari over the fast bicycle, just sayin.

I thought 155mph was a rush on a motorcycle? There's no feeling like becoming one with a machine. A rocket powered bike I'm not sure. A animal crossing in front of you or even a mouse or the slightest cross wind could ruin your day and having children while sitting on that seat. Coming off that rocket on wheels could add a new meaning to road rash. Where's the guy pushing the garbage pail on wheels with the broom and dust pan to pick you up when you come off that thing. Murphy's law always wins.

Yeah, probably doesn't corner worth a hoot.
I know they are some kind of special compound but those tires
are waaaay too skinny for that speed.
The next video we see of this guy on the internet will no doubt
be him doing the slo-mo Evel Knievel death roll from Caesars
Palace.
I hope he wises up and retires that thing now.

Becoming one with the pavement is a close second.
