WOW, that is one of the most awesome motorcycles I have ever seen. WOW was the word that first came to my mind. It's an "insane "bike. It's off the chain.
SEE? That is were I get in trouble all the time! Driving minding my own business and see something like that and do a U-Turn.. NO signal, NO slowing, NO shit.. Love the calliope of horns at a time like that.. Makes me want one of those..
So why are we arguing about something none of us have.... The idea is crazy, the engineering is creative, the final product is awesome!!!!! Who cares who built it....
some will say its a trike and some would say Its a quad if ya wanna get technical about the twin wheels on the front but a trile or a quad is still a bike because ya ride it rather than drive it....ITS A BIKE!
Actually Leno already has a vehicle (Blastolene Car) built by this company already. This guy got the idea from Leno. This bike cost over one million dollars to build so if your thinking about anything like it, that's the starting price! I saw a short T.V. show on this purpose built motorcycle and it gave a short background about the guy who commissioned the building of this bike. I believe he is a retired guy, not sure what he did (or does) but no doubt he had enough money to build it.
He came round yesterday and this morning :) right laugh Tim is , good friend of my dads, I get plans and drawings for his stuff and calendars ect. Great bloke :)
If you look closely there's not alot holding those gigantic rear wheels on! The setup has a rather light lower arm which has a bearing bracket on the end holding the wheel,there is no upper arm !! the shocks mount to the lower arm and the driveshaft has a CV joint on the inboard end,nice job but personaly with tyres and torque that big I'd want ALOT more metal holding them on!!
Always that I see this... tricycle video? , I dont know but I know; Damed!! I will like buy one and get it in my country to say: "Hellow baby, do you want a ride". :-)
