Why?

 

[KillerHERTZ]

Reminds me of the Batpod!

Why?

It's claimed to be the fastest bike in the world with 0 - 60 times under 2.5 sec

Power to weight ratio must be off the scale.


Reminds me of the Law Master from Judge Dredd

I'm sure there are quicker standard bikes out there.

Bro-in-law used to run a twin engined drag bike that would see that off. Other bro-in-law ran a 1300cc Suzi turbo+NOS road bike that would go round corners AND see that off.

Great bike all the same but not worth the money ...

Erm ... how the hell is that engine cooled?

Edit: aha, read the link above

•Cooling: Twin aluminum radiators mounted atop engine
intake manifolds, force-fed from front-mounted, belt-driven turbine fan. Takes 11 quarts of antifreeze.

Is that not a very slim car? Four wheels and all that. OK the guy is sitting astride it but on the "bin" wagons in American they drive them standing up!!
What an odd carry on.

There is an alternative, road legal and nowhere near as ugly or heavy. Oh and a third of the price.

Jet powered bike.

0 to 320 Kph in 5.4 seconds ??? I'm not sure your arms would stay in their sockets

Is that Mr Burns riding that bike?

"Who's motorcycle is this, Smithers"?
"Why..it's yours sir"
"Excellent, Smithers....ex...cellent"
