He's not finished with the design. It's a CAD rendering using Triumph 955i dimensions.

Not so sure about the front suspension or the turbocharger location. Front suspension looks like a version of the BMW "telelever". Turbo looks like it could be a butt and thigh roaster. Don't think I could get used to the position of the carburetor either. Still, it is much cooler than the typical biker build off crap.

Daves sez: be kind of hard to ride with no footpegs?

True, but I don't think this thing was actually meant to be ridden. Like most of these bikes, they are works of sculpture. Can you imagine how much that thing vibrates...and how quickly that unsupported carb, manifold and blower fell off?

It is different than the typical biker build-off crap, but not any more practical...or functional. Regarding the comment that it "must hold 12 gallons of fuel", it appears that with the tunnel necessary for the manifold plenum and the front shock/suspension, that the tank would hold very little.

It is a nice looking piece of art though.

Where's the battery? Hanging out with the footpegs? joker


I second the kudos to Goldamer. I really liked his blown Blast engine'd board tracker theme bike.

If they're trying to use the Buell-ish ultralight wheel/ZTL brake design, they need to move the rear sprocket out to the perimeter as well.

Now that thing looks pretty sweet...

What does the right side of the bike look like?

Where? I see a tube but isn't that for gas? Plus, there still is a lot of stuff hanging out there to be on a paint shaker.

No pegs, no Brake levers, instruments or switch gear,

But hey it's a virtual bike, presumably for a virtual rider.

Yeah; kinda like having a solid gold penis. It's nice and shiny, took some skill to fabricate, and it costs a lot. But it just doesn't work as well as the real thing.
