Bonneville Stories Part X “Anatomy of a Streamliner” The Denis Manning Story

A supremely talented and self-taught designer and fabricator, Denis Manning, MR. BUB, has devoted his life to pursuing the motorcycle land-speed record and his innovative streamliners have succeeded on more than one occasion.

Manning, also the founder of aftermarket motorcycle exhaust pipe company BUB Enterprises, built the streamliner that multi-time AMA Grand National Champion Chris Carr rode to a world-record 350.8 mph at the Bonneville Salt Flats on September 7, 2006.

BUB 7 is now the fastest motorcycle on the planet * Chris Carr set a new FIM world record & AMA national record at 367.382 mph thru the mile with an exit speed of 372.534 mph at the Cook Private Meet at the Bonneville Salt Flats Utah. We thank the crew and all of the sponsors that made this possible to bring home the record.
