I have noticed that a lot of you are bike fans. Well, you just have to see this one. A two-wheeled rocket if you can swallow the price tag. I like a fast bike as much as the next guy....but I don't think I would even want to test drive this.

Well I thought seriously about it and I've decided against buying one at this stage.
Wow, that's $300,000 Aus.!! I could buy a luxury mansion here for that price.

They need to call Mike or Joey. That thing is in serious need of striping!

Personally, that little INDIAN is more interesting! Looks like a BRAVE model.
What year and model is it?

The photo was taken around 1961. If I remember right it was a Scout circa early 40's. Unfortunately it was stolen about 15 years ago.

I dunno..

For about $13,000 you can buy a Suzuki Hayabusa streetbike which hits 205 MPH right off the showroom floor.

Maybe with another $10,000 in modifications you could make it hit 250 like that turbine bike.

Jeez, for 150Grand, and it just breaks the 10 second barrier for a quarter mile... Couple of twin turbos and some cheater slicks on a Viper, and boom there you are. Not too mention a fighting chance in crash. I think I will stick to something with 4 wheels...

Hey...small world!

That bike was here in Port Angeles about 2 months ago. The owner was washing his truck next to a sign shop...went in and met the sign guy( Paco) of ASM signs. They hit it off, so he hired Paco to design a logo and put it on the bike and the trailer (the trailer was made out of clear Lexan, so you could see the bike)He did it in all Vinyl(Oh-well !!) While it was at the shop he fired that "Bad Boy" up!!!! It has a small jet engine...and I am sure most of you know what that sounds like! Man...I have been riding most of my life....I would LOVE to ride that sucker....I could just feel the power.
The owner said all you could do was "Hold On!!!! What a RUSH!!!
He was taking it around the country on a promo tour. If you ever get the chance to see it...DO!!!!
