Target audience being the 3 people who thought 'Tron' was cool? Well, a niche is a niche, I guess.

" I found it interesting in that they didn't show it banked over going through some twisties."

Yeah, or banked over hitting a patch of sand or cinders going about 150mph........

Too much cycle for me. Maybe 30 years ago, when I was *indestructable*, but at 56, I'll pass.

Laying on top of a V-10 engine has got to get very hot.

WoW! That's an awesome looking machine, but I wouldn't pay that much for it.

I love bikes but that overpolished thing looks like a cross between Dr. Dolittle's Pushmi-Pullyu and R2D2.

How many of those 'cheap' big block chevy bikes could you get for the price of one of these? 3 or 4 IIRC.

Waste of a perfectly good viper engine. I know a '57 fiat 600 that would be pefect for it.

This isn't a motorcycle, it's just a very skinny 4wheeler.

Now, if you want to see a real motorcycle, going 200 mph, you need to see Anthony Hopkins' movie, "The World's Fastest Indian", then, Bob's your uncle, you saw what a real motorcycle rider can do.

Is it a valid investment vehicle (accidental pun) for a 401K?

'K... I'm starting a Freeper collection to buy it.

Gimme 250K, I'll ride it, write a report about it, call it 'The Freeper Cycle" and take it to Patriot Guard rides!
