the more i look... the more i like, extreme overkill...that is absolutely bitchin'!

Sorry, but I think that is the biggest POS in the entire show.

Did anyone else notice that there is a lot of stress coming through the engine? The entire fron end is held in place by a mount through the engine, and in front of the seat.

It still boggles me how that thing steers. I think the entire front end pivots horizontally, as opposed to vertically like on every other bike.

kinda cool tho.

A little over the top if you ask me, woulda been cooler to just have a 10'x10' block of gold. It's far from functional....but from an artistic standpoint, I think it's gorgeous! The fact that it started as an idea and now it's right there is cool as hell.

johnnyooze · 12-08-2006, 01:11 AM

ya, i agree with Johnny (great minds do think alike). its more a piece of art than a motorcycle. still cool as hell tho. but realistically, if you had the money to throw at that, its not really a question of "why". but "why not". there are people in this world that spend that much money on their pet chihuahuas for christ sake...

Sticks n Stones · 12-08-2006, 02:22 AM

I put your key words together: highly stressed chihuahua shaped chunk of gold. Now THERE'S something you wouldn't see every day.... as for that bike, I just hope that the builder at least ran it before plating because gold melts at what temperature?
