In a clip shared on SA Trucker, a BMW biker is seen clocking over 300km/h on the N3 highway in KZN but his speed demon victory is short-lived after he is overtaken by a McLaren.
A VIDEO of a BMW motorcycle clocking over over 300km/h on a local highway has gone viral but not for the reasons you think.
In a post shared by SA Trucker, a biker is seen filming the speedometer on his superbike, believed to be a BMW M 1000 RR.
You see the digits quickly climb from 119km/h to 122, 137 and as the bike edges towards the 308km/h figure, a McLaren 720S can be seen overtaking the bike in the fast lane.
According to reports, the “race” took place on the N3 in KwaZulu-Natal. The video is not dated.
According to cars.mclaren.com, the 4.0L twin-turbo-charged V8 engine is a force of nature. With its 770Nm of torque, it can go from 0-60mp/h in only 2.8 seconds.
