Description: The Legend of the Bathing Suit Bike. On September 13, 1948, Rollie Free shattered the land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats. Riding an aligerated British 1000cc V-Twin, his protective leathers tore during initial runs, creating wind resistance. In a display of sheer grit, Free stripped down to swimming trunks and laid completely flat out along the rear fender with his legs extended straight behind him. This extreme aerodynamic posture worked flawlessly: Free clocked a historic 150.313 MPH, pushing his British twin to the absolute limit. A premium weathered technical tribute to a legendary moment of pure speed and garage culture heritage.
