Rider Profile

Best For	This machine is strictly for elite, highly experienced riders with serious high-performance and exotic-vehicle background, not a stepping-stone bike for anyone still building skill.
Purpose	Built as a jaw-dropping straight-line speed showcase and collector's exotic, powered by a helicopter-derived gas turbine rather than a conventional engine.
Rider Fit	Demands strong physical composure and quick reflexes to manage explosive turbine power delivery and a 2-speed gearbox at extreme velocity.
Character	A rare, theatrical, jet-whine-soundtracked hyperbike that exists to stun onlookers and dominate top-speed runs rather than provide everyday practicality.
Not Ideal For	Not for new riders, commuters, or anyone wanting a comfortable, low-maintenance, easy-to-live-with motorcycle.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2003 Marine Turbine Technologies Y2K Turbine Superbike, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
