Motorcycle News achieves 218.1mph on our 401bhp SuperBusa at Kendrew Barracks, UK
With revised gearing and a fresh ECU map, Motorcycle News's, Bruce Dunn, took our road-legal SuperBusa to a verified 218.1mph, on 16 March, at Kendrew Barracks, Rutland UK.
This incredible feat marks the final phase of development for our limited-edition, supercharged hyper-bike. Following a huge number of comments from people eager to know the true top speed; we're delighted to be able to reveal just what the SuperBusa is capable of.
"Development has been ongoing throughout the winter and we've been eagerly awaiting an opportunity for decent weather and a suitable venue to test the SuperBusa," says TTS MD, Richard Albans.
"Having already had one big test day cancelled last week due to poor weather, we were understandably nervous about joining Motorcycle News at Kendrew Barracks – one of the few runways available that allows us to test to over 200mph.
"But it wasn't only the weather; many other factors conspired against us in the days leading up to the top speed attempt, so I'm absolutely delighted to finally prove what this fully road-legal bike can do," says Albans.
SuperBusa #40 made a hefty 401.14bhp at 11,191rpm for the top speed attempt, although the production version isn't exactly lacking in power, producing 370bhp at 10,752rpm.
"But that's not the end of it. With further revisions to the gearing, Bruce and I are confident that we can get to 220+mph on the SuperBusa," smiles Albans.
Bruce adds: "This is something else. To be fair it's more usable [than other bikes]. We also had a Kawasaki Z H2 here this morning and that feels a bit more vicious and abrupt."
He sums up the SuperBusa by commenting: "It's supercharged, super-fast, and you can use it to ride to the shops! In this day and age, I celebrate this stuff."

TTS – Supercharging Performance Since 1982!
Hello everyone, I’m Oliver from London, The United Kingdom. I first heard about this site when a friend was talking about his evening bingo sessions. Curious, I opened JackpotJoy Casino later that night. I liked how playful and colorful the interface was—it made it easy to follow the numbers and enjoy the games. My first few rounds didn’t go well, but then a winning ticket popped up, recovering my losses and leaving me surprisingly happy with the session.
Focus: Pushing the Limits of Physics Verified at 218.1mph! That is an incredible feat for a road-legal machine. The stability required to hold that speed at Kendrew Barracks must be immense. I was actually searching for "SuperBusa top speed attempt updates" and noticed a link for Space Slots casino in my history from a quick break earlier, but I stayed focused on this TTS report first. Can’t wait to see if they break 220mph!
Hi everyone, happy to be here. I visited recently to get a sense of how the platform is organized. I began by reviewing the main categories and then explored some of the other sections step by step. The site’s layout seems straightforward, red lion casino which makes navigation easier for new users. Many users in the UK may find browser access convenient, as it allows them to explore different sections, understand the structure, and familiarize themselves with the platform without additional software.👍
Absolutely insane performance 🔥
Seeing a road-legal machine in the UK reach over 218 mph is hard to wrap your head around — that’s hypercar territory, but on two wheels. The engineering behind builds like this is incredible, especially considering the bike still remains usable outside of a track environment. It really shows how far modern performance tuning has come.
Posts like this always remind me how diverse online interests can be. While browsing UK-based content, I sometimes bookmark unexpected sites that catch my attention — not necessarily related to motorsports — including sombrero spins, simply because they appear at the right moment and are easy to revisit later.
Overall, an impressive achievement and a great example of the extreme…
I stumbled here while searching for 'chilli local events' in the UK for my weekend. Google is unpredictable; it first showed Chilli Reels by mistake (maybe because of the name?), but then I found your article on the harvest. It was a lucky find! We wanted an authentic activity far from the screens, and participating in this seems like the perfect way to reconnect now!!!
