It really could fit you!

But never with those original pegs. I think you would need them to move somewhere in front of the crankcase. No big deal since there are no pedals on both sides.

They already have some worldwide orders. Are you one???

We can't await the pics...


All the best, Rudi

1500 pounds, 400cid....
Depending on the gearing, IF you can keep your wrist out of it, it should be capable of 20-25mpg.

It would also be capable of 8mpg if you can't keep your wrist out of it.

But honestly, I don't think anyone willing to pony up the third-million dollars for one of these is really going to be concerned about MPG.


It's not like they'll be riding it every day anyways... I'm sure Jay Leno will buy one. Most will end up on display in museums and private collections.

I think I would be quite safe in saying that my Vulcan 1600 will use more fuel in one year than ALL of the production run for this bike combined.

It looks awesome, but it might be hard to handle it thru curves, not to think of a u-turn. OK, it has a reverse gear, so if you stop the other traffic and then do some back-and-forth.
