Wow 0-60 in 2.5 seconds (you'd need to be some rider to handle that power)

Top speed of over 300mph (I stuggle at 80 for too long)

Seems like the superbike of all superbikes. Unfortunately the $700,000 pricetag means this is about as close as I'll ever get to one.

I thought it was just a prototype from 2003.
With it having 500 hp and the 8.3 L V10 engine from the Dodge Viper. I can honestly say it is a sweet street beast. I know Jay Leno has one.-N

I remember that thing. It's actually been around for some time now. There was a video floating around of someone riding one a few years ago. It's not the easiest bike to ride. He was a pro and could barely handle it.

Um, no. That has been around for a good number of years already. I've seen them at the rallies. Really... not practical.

Here's my "comfy" bike after the last rebuild (crashed). I have over 66,000 miles on this. 2003 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500 Classic.


I also have a 2005 Yamaha FZ1 I got a fair deal on as a leftover in early 2007. This has 15,000 miles on it now. Ridden her down into North Carolina and around the South a bit. Crashed it last September but it's back 100% stock. Yes, it's fast.




Somewhere I have a photo I took in Sturgis of a chopper sporting a rotary (Rotec 7 cylinder 110HP) aircraft engine. http://www.rotecradialengines.com/0RotecR2800/R2800.htm

Take a look at this guys work. He's a member of a bike club we play for.

Check out the Jensen 6.3litre trike he built for a paraplegic guy.

Holy cow! I bet it corners like a pig but it would be fun as heck to "move down the motorway" on.

Those look cool. Check out these trikes too. Especially the widowmaker...

Niki, Joe, love those trikes, I have been a fan of this one since it's introduction and there is a boutique motorcycle with a ridiculously fat rear tire that I have seen a few of but now I can't remember the manufacturer.

Here's a cool trike that has made the rounds to a few rallies. I give you...

The Anaconda!



If V-8 motors are your thing... here's a double-take. From a local rally here in '08.

VT, love 'em both, the 1st you could prob' rent to prom-goers and the second you could use to tow your boat, preferably one of these:

Now THAT'S some power! Those boats are stupid fast! I'm grinnin' just thinking about piloting one of those beasts!

I've got maybe a couple thousand photos of bikes (and other stuff) from rallies I've been to.

Have a lot of friends that ride but personally not my thing. But I do appreciate a hot bike.
