credit for posting these originally goes to r3Voltn1 on Fireblades in the fighters by Streetbeastcycles.com thread, but I felt the bikes in that thread were worth posting in here too.

I'm not a streetfighter bike kinda guy myself, but I do appreciate them and the power that they wield.

A wee bit of an extension thing going on with that truck? How could anyone possibly want to drive that every day? (yes, I see it`s air ride and lifted but still)
Not street legal here by a long shot... Only as a commercial lorry if even that... Bike`s not exactly my thing either, don`t get those teeny tiny tails, front shock covers or those gingerbread discs...

Trucks like that are all over the place here in Tennessee, though not necessarily THAT high up.
While I do like my full fairing bikes, I still can appreciate the work that has gone into these. They are like works of art.

More bikes from the same shop.

those are r3voltn1's (and friend's) bikes - and he's a member here or at least - he was. a previous version of his bike(the one with the truck) was up for a ROTM a year or so ago. that one bike with the truck has gone through more than one transformation. he has build threads on CF if you're interested in seeing how much he's done.

I like bikes like this that try out new concepts ...

I FOUND IT!









gettin that thing around on a track is impressive. i wonder how slow it is compared to more 'conventional' sportbikes

Conrice, that turbo-fighter is ludicrous. Wow!
I have no doubt that will raise the front end in any gear.

And thank you for posting that Britten. I couldn't for the life of me remember that name. I kept thinking Bimota but that wasn't it. It's sad Britton passed away so soon after he built this masterpiece.
