"And what about this....LOTUS....?!!!"

If the rear wheel stand isn't carbon fiber, I don't want it. LOL

 

I would ride that. It looks like it'd be fun to ride. Of course, your leg might get a bit hot with that turbo and exhaust dumping out on your right leg...




























I wonder how well that "friction drive" does with a twin turbo set up - what a waste...

"No tire kickers and no joy rides."

He's probably pretty safe there.

I simply cannot imagine any riding situation where that would provide any joy.

"Todger" - don't think it's an expression Americans use alot, but surely worthy of adopting in this case?

 

Exactly - an 18 wheeler has a tighter turn radius...


Imagine how stiff of a rear spring you'd have to have in order to have normal suspension because of the leverage that long of a swing arm puts on the shock.

I bet you it's an absolute terror to ride in the rain or in the cold.

I don't mind a bike that has a 4-6in stretch, if it's a high hp bike that's meant for racing - but that's a 4-6 FOOT stretch ... on a KAN-O-TUNA

 

 

Radical Ducati - the shop in Spain - is closing down after 15 years of business. This is their "swan song". And man - that is a nice bike.

 

Check out this beautiful 954 fighter Mika_U sent me in an email. VERY nice tank modification and the 1000rr tail looks right at home on the 954 if you ask me!

 

No replacement for displacement you say? Well:



Das Panzerbike, a tank engine powered motorcycle, 38,8litres (2368cui) creating 1,000 HP. I can only imagine the noise that thing makes with no mufflers whatsoever.
