Okay. These things are all that and a six-pack of chimichangas.....










Many of these were built from modifications to a Honda Fusion scooter, but I find the closest model to do this with today would be the Yamaha Morphous:


I found the prices for the ones that they sell at around $21,000. This is a simple currency conversion and doesn't include the shipping -they're only available in Japan......so far.

I'm now at work doing some overtime and making the Wife mad at me.

I need the $$$ if I want to get out of debt to get a bike (so I can get back into debt).

[Uriah_lost]

I'm thinking about getting a job and getting off the couch just to be able to get one of those beauties! And this thread needs to be bumped back up.

[RandallFlagg]

Thanks for the bump.

They aren't being sold yet -the factory is still being built.

But people have built their own.

[Uriah_lost]

If I were to do it seriously, I would prefer to do it myself anyway. A conversion kit would almost certainly be a winner.

[LibKill]

DAMN!

That is one scary looking machine.

Back in the day I used to ride a Yamaha 500 single. This was a revival of an old BSA design.

That damnthing looks like it is waiting for Darth Vader.

[lil_rebbitzen]

lol. It does look like a Darth Vader kind of bike.

This bike looks AWESOME. I wonder how it rides.
If it comes out over here, I might just buy it after I had some serious cash.

Sexy bike.

Have a look here for people doing this in the 70’s. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasar_(motorcycle)
I had a Guzzi (1980 Spada), made enquiries, but never had the money to do it.

[Clinging Bitterly]

That's the word that came to mind for me too.

Patterned after a cartoon, is it? I suppose it's just not my style.

[RandallFlagg]

I’d have to get one and paint it black, too.

I grabbed this pic off the net cause I don't have an image of my bike, mine has a silver fairing and it has a padded sissy bar, otherwise its identical to this. I spent a couple of hours riding it yesterday up here in Alaska, first ride of the season for me. Its a 1980 Honda CX 500 Deluxe. And this is what my new one looks like, its a 2009 Yamaha Star XVS1300 Tourer, its still inside the house because there is still over a foot of snow outside, I bought it in November, only rode it 43 miles so far.I have added some highway bars, HID headlight, chromed mesh radiator shroud and extra bright LED rear lights. And the exhaust is modified just a tad...
