How many people do you think can travel on a scooter. If your answer is two or three here is a man who says 25. Yes thats the number of people Colin Furze from the UK claims can travel on his scooter. Colin claims to have build the longest motorbike which is 72 feet long and can seat 25 people

Colin, a plumber from Lincolnshire, has hand built this stretched scooter to enter the Guinness Book of World Records. He has used a 125 cc scooter and cut into half. Then bolted together an aluminium frame in the middle that can accommodate 23 more people. The stretched scooter is a whopping 72 feet long.

This astonishing contraption might seem unreal or even impossible. Colin said the scooter would sway an twist while he was driving it. It really surprises us that he was able to drive this stretched scooter. Considering the scooter is powered by only a 125cc engine capable of generating just 9bhp it is quite surprising.

Colin who wanted to get the the record of the world's longest motorbike had to drive the scooter for a minimum of 100 metres surprised everyone by driving it for more than a mile. Turning the 72 feet long scooter is something close to impossibility as it requires a clear six lane road to make a turn. We believe this stretched scooter is only for straight roads.

Colin has made video of him riding the stretched scooter and has sent it to Guinness for accreditation. He already owns the record of build the world's fastest mobility scooter.
