The Fastest Super Bikes Of All Time

Yamaha FZR1000

The first bike to soundly beat the 160 mile per hour barrier, the Yamaha FZR1000 quickly showed Kawasaki that they couldn’t rest on their laurels if they wanted to own the title of the fastest back. The 1989 Yamaha FZR1000 could reach speeds of 163 miles per hour, nipping on the heels of Kawasaki’s fastest bikes. The competition between Yamaha and Kawasaki would kickstart the speed wars and in the years ahead, motorcycle companies continually tried to one-up one another. For sports bikes enthusiasts, this would mean ever faster bikes and more choices.
