The Warner Riley, Jim Fischer, Mike Witt led Gray Ghost II AMA National Land Speed Record project had a record setting week at the recent 2012 BUB Motorcycle Speed Trials held at the famed Bonneville Salt Flats. Despite the heavy rains the event was a huge success with the Gray Ghost achieving 3 back-to-back record runs to conclude with an AMA National Land Speed Record of 169.627 MPH and a Top Speed of 170.552 MPH. Now you can see and get the lowdown by watching this YouTube video: youtu.be/DN7EbWf1Wa4
