World's Fastest Motorcycle Prototype: Dodge Tomahawk
Oct 28 2011
This bike was introduced all the way back in 2003 at the International Auto Show in Detroit, Michigan - and a mere 9 units were ever built. Powered by the same 500 horsepower 8.3L V10 engine that is found inside of the Dodge Viper.
The bike can speed up to 100 km/h (60 mph) in just 2.3 seconds.
Dodge claimed that the bike can do 480 km/h (300 mph) but never tested it as it was deemed that the bike did not have sufficient aerodynamics.
Hand-built examples of the Tomahawk were offered for sale through the Neiman Marcus catalog at a price of $555,000 US, and up to nine of them might have sold.
Dodge emphasized that the bikes were “rolling sculptures” and are not intended to be ridden. We disagree!
