In the late 1940s, American rider and former Indian racer Rollie Free had gained the World Speed Record for Unstreamlined Motorcycles at the Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah, USA, on a modified Vincent. Famously, the last few mph had proven elusive until Free stripped down to his bathing trunks, whereupon he thundered through the traps at a mean magical two-way average speed of 150.31 mph.
