We’re still chasing down all the details, but on Thursday, September 3, Gregor Moe of Minnesota set a new class speed record aboard a Victory at the BUB Motorcycle Speed Trials at the Bonneville (UT) Salt Flats.
Running on the HANGAR 12/Lloydz Motors No. 120 Victory in the 2000-M-AG class, Moe established a new and official world record speed of 165.8 mph, making his bike the World’s Fastest Victory.
The bike was powered by a Victory Freedom engine that had been modified and race-prepped by Lloyd Greer of Lloydz Motorworkz.
Reports filtering in during the day Thursday said Moe posted a speed of 165.6 mph, which would have been a new world record, and that he backed it up with a 166.004 mph run. (To certify a world record, a driver has to back it up by making a second run near the same speed.)
Details will be posted here as they become available. Congratulations to Gregor, Lloyd and the crew for putting a Victory into the record book at Bonneville.
