World's Longest Motorbike is 72 Feet Long, Seats 25
A set of mopeds converted by an English plumber might become the world’s longest motorbike after his one mile run reaching 35mph.
A set of mopeds converted by an English plumber might become the world’s longest motorbike after his one mile run reaching 35mph.
Colin Furze, the man behind such oddities as the scooter flamethrower, built his extremely long (72 feet long) bike in his mother’s backyard, out of two and a half 125cc mopeds and an aluminum frame built in three separate parts.
During his road test, Furze drove the bike over one mile, and said, “This motorbike was so heavy and difficult to drive I think it would be impossible to make a longer bike. I think this record will stand for a very long time.” For the test, he drove the bike without the 25 passengers, but said that with some modifications to the suspension, he felt that a passenger-worthy version of the bike was possible.
