Global Strength  Fueled By Determination - The Incredible Burt
Munro  Burt Munro from Invercargill, New Zealand set the world's
land speed record on this motorcycle in 1967 at the Bonneville
Salt Flats. Burt's legendary tenacity was the inspiration for
the 2005 film "The World's Fastest Indian" that told the story
of Burt and his beloved 1920 Indian Scout. His land speed
machine featured a highly tweaked Indian Scout engine with parts
so modified by Munro that it needed to be torn down and rebuilt
for every ten minutes of competitive running. Virtually void of
any safety mechanisms and featuring only parts required to go

unofficial top speed of 205.67 mph.  Burt Munro was inducted

top speed of 55 miles per
