jay leno manages to be cool for his entire life

This is probably how Jay dries his hair after a shower.

I've seen this bike is person and talked to Jay about it at The Rock Store many years ago. What he didn't tell you is that in the twisting mountain roads of California, you can literally hear this bike coming from about a mile away, as the sound of the jet engine echos off the canyon walls. I vividly recall hearing the low rumble of countless motorcycles, then suddenly this high-pitched "whoosh" that made everyone look up the road saying, "What the hell _is_ that noise?"

8 minutes Per Gallon, replace odometer with Alarm clock. Nice bike. Thanks for the great video.

Coolest start-up sound. Needs to be in a superhero movie.

Ninja H2 is shaking!

Real life Batbike!

I still remember the interview you did, talking about this bike, when the guy behind you was so interested in what you were riding got too close and melted his front bumper. I never get tired of your collection and love for it.

That jet engine sound on a bike will definitely drives you crazy 😍

This is basically the dream of a 8 year old boy brought to life!! It also proves that it doesn’t matter how old you get, everyone is still a kid at ❤️

I don't ride bikes but that is something I could use to look at a lot!

"you know you shouldn't be there but, by golly, it's a lot of fun." Jay overflowing with wisdom again.

Still love the story about him melting the bumper of a Lexus that pulled up behind that bike in traffic!

Jay Leno, an American treasure. Paul

Ladies and Gentleman their are no seat belts, prepare for takeoff.

Still my favourite bike ever. Got my leg roasted by one at Goodwood a few years back.

Yes!! I've been waiting to see more of this bike. I remember that in the previous video (maybe on your channel?) there was a mention of a Nissan behind the bike at a traffic light; as the light turned green, the Nissan began to melt. Thank you Mr. Leno.

What? Only 2 minutes of footage?? What happened, did you run out of fuel or something? I want to see an in-depth review of this thing!

J & b you are all the best thanks for posting

Finally, a video of the jet bike where it isn't just standing still!

Pure awesome

I'd seriously enjoy it IF Leno, *_you'd_* have your own comedy-talk-reality show on Comedy Central! This online / cable / UKposts one IS pretty good though.

Jay, you're on the edge of insanity !! I love it !!!!

Jay used to bring this to our Sunday Morning cars and coffee meets now and then . A real head turner for sure.

Oh Jay bless you and your self deprecating ways!

youre driving down the highway and you just hear Jay Leno coming up with his street legal fighter jet

Jay you are the man... I would love to get a tour of your garage it must be epic!!!!

these are made by a guy in my town, he usually drove one to the gumbo cookoff. but he does have a new one built called the MTT 420R check it out ,

It's not a jet (turbojet) engine, it's a turboshaft engine. A jet engine produces thrust, this produces torque. Instead of the exhaust going through a nozzle and producing thrust, it drives a power turbine attached to an output shaft instead.

That sound is awesome

sick bike I loved good stuff Jay.

I remember when he picked this bike up !!! sick Jay glad you still have it .!!

That is the best thing I've seen all week

Need a full review on bike. Its amazing Jay.

This was too short but there are other videos of it..........it's amazing that it is legal for the roads ! The factoids are a great addition.

Love the sound.

Insane!! Jay you are officially mad.

Omg that sounds amazing.

Jay is for sure a hot shirt. Love his garage. He has the coolest stuff if I could do it's been my dream garage

I love it!!!! That's awesome Jay!!!!!

As an airline pilot, I want to know a few things Does it hot/wet start? How much fuel does it hold? Tell me all about that transmission haha

I think the funny thing is that this bike gets its maximum fuel economy at its top speed of 237 mph. And at those speeds its more fuel efficient than any car that can reach those speeds, like the Bugatti Veyron which guzzles 1.4 gallons per minute at 268 mph. While the MTT Y2K gets 4 mpg in the city and 17 mpg on the highway, it likely achieves somewhere in the ballpark of 25 mpg at 240 mph as my best guess (the new model reaches 250 I recall), since with any jet engine without thermal regenerators (unlike the Chrysler Turbine) they are most efficient at really high speed as you waste less and less heat the higher the rpm of the output turbine and the higher the load (thanks aerodynamic drag). Its really too bad that a street legal motorbike has no real purpose going anything over 100 mph to 120 at the most, but at least MTT can truly say that the Y2K is the best and most fuel efficient motorbike at what it does, which is going really fast. For comparison, the Kawasaki Ninja H2R can get roughly 32 mpg highway. Its got dismal fuel economy compared to other bikes since its top speed is 240 mph and its made for high speed and high power, not long range. The Y2K drops into the same "superbike" or maybe "hyperbike" class. If the Ninja H2R gets 32 mpg at 60 mph, then calculating that out with a quadrupling in air resistance for every doubling in speed (aka 4x speed experiences 16x air resistance since its a square function) the Ninja H2R only achieves a measly 8 mpg, or 1 gallon every 2 minutes compared to the 1 gallon per 8 minutes that the Y2K engine guzzles at any speed. The H2R is 1.8 GPH at highway and 30 GPH at top speed, while the Y2K is 7.5 GPH at highway and around the same 7.5 GPH at top speed, maybe 8 or 9 in a less perfect environment.

Beautiful superbike

Take her to the salt flats!

I actually met Jay at The Rock Store in Malibu Canyon one day when he pulled up on this bike! It was awesome! He and I actually spoke for about a minute or so before he had to leave. Super cool guy and baaaadddaaaasss bike!

Jay leno is friggin awesome

This is the only thing ive ever needed

The last line was the best! Hahahahaha! Nice (INSANE) bike, but the saddle looked like it could be better

I agree great commentary!

Does it have a bumper to bumper warranty?

I love the sound of this bike especially at start up... Jay please show the Arial Square four.

That bike sounds like the 1966 Batmobile on TV. Go, Jay! X)

UNNECESSARY AWESOMENESS

this is the coolest thing that i ever seen

I did however have a 1970's 2 stroke that left an equal size smoke trail, & never had to worry about tailgaters.!

Wicked, but cool as hell! Just firing it up worths the expense, I guess. Imagine those unaware of this bike's existence waiting for a regular bike's engine starting sound and then... priceless. Wait, why's this video so damn small?... I mean, short?... I mean... just forget about that one.

Jay you crack me up!

WOW, THAT IS THE COOLEST SOUNDING BIKE EVER!!!........ Me yelling over the exhaust noise....

How cool is that start up !

that bike is an absolute dream.

Next level indeed

Jay is AWEsOme!

Everyone goes a bit crazy ..the difference is Jay has the toys to calm himself. he's a nice man.

Sound alone.... definitely Superhero 👍❣️🚩

Leno is a savage!

we love you Jay

CRAZY!!!!

Sounds freekin sweet!!!!!

OH YEAH, Baby. It would be exciting to take this jet bike for a spin.

Jay leno for next president

I like the annotations. actually I love the annotations

That's ridiculous! I need one!

Wow that is just.. wow

I’ve seen Jay on this bike at the Rock Store in the Malibu mountains about 15 years ago prob. Give or take a few years. Ran into him there a couple times actually back then but he had this bike out once. The delay time to speed up or slow down quickly makes it so scary to me to even ride it.

Jay, dont you think its time you do full video of this bike? I think you did one before but in HD would be nice. lol

Very Exotic Bike Jay....😎

That's badass

I love it when he makes a review on motorcycles!! but this review was tooooo short!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was hoping the exhaust would come out the back of the seat like it looks like it should; would look more jet fighter-like.

That's insane

lol , just remember the previous Y2K video , when the car guy get tooo close and his front bumper melted XD , hilarious

Sweet sound! Let's fly with my bike!😄😄 I want one! 👌👍

Sick

Jay Leno, just making jokes, everyday. 😅😂

That thing IS the Bat-Cycle come to life

"The sound signature is unlike anything else on wheels."

That's just flat out scary!

Awesum cheers jay just got kids to bed and this is an nice little reward Oh I'm in nz and 8.30pm on Monday 😀

With the jet engine, does the rear wheel propel the bike or does the exhaust?

Yeah ! I want one !

Jay we need an in depth look at this bike. I have no idea how this could work I need to see every bolt!

* knight rider theme *

Talk about scaring yourself! That's the thing you need. Ever seen the Jet Vette? Jay, if it is ever possible, I'd like to see a feature on this turbine powered 1978 Corvette someday!

*Jay Leno's Ego*

Favorite of his I like to watch

You know I reckon Jay Leno is Batman

nice video of the motorcycle. man talk about fast!

A short video brought me here...wonder if Leno got the newer version

Still, an awesome bike!!

Thats crazy
