Now here's a motorcycle-
http://www.wimp.com/tomahawk/

That thing actually drives? I've seen it before, but my automagazine stated it was purely a concept-model, without beeing road-ready!

One thing though... if it has like 500+ HP, why the heck is it doing like 20 mph in the movie? And why isn't there any turn filmed? Or does this model only go straight?

Fozzer?

Ps: somehow the name wimp and this machine don't do each other justice!  ;)

Hi Omag...

I tried to download the file on 56k dial-up...
...gave up after three weeks... ...!

From the description, I think I have seen a photo of it in one of my bike mags... ..!
Would make an ideal Dragster...
...in a straight line... ...!
LOL...!

Cheers all...!

Paul...500cc...60BHP....Twin....125 MPH......!

That's the one.... ...!

...thank's Ivan...
...that was a much quicker download ...!

It beats me how the "motorcycle clutch?" stands up to all that transmission power... ...!
LOL...!

I think I prefer my Captain Sensible bike, tho'......LOL...!

Paul...Beep...Beep......!

automatic gearbox... most of it is normal car parts i think

That thing has a lean-angle of 45

I can just imagine what the cost of keeping fuel in this crotch rocket would be!  :o

I bet most insurance agents would have a heart attack looking at this beast while try to give you a quote. Look out Geico...lmao  

That one's old!!! Was introduced a few years ago already... Rumours were that it had a theoretic top speed of 650KMH but I think those were slightly exagerated.. slightly.  funny thing though

That thing looks like it's from the future.

Hahahahahaha, that made me laugh. What a ridiculous design. I read the specs and it made me wet my pants. A lean angle of 45 degrees? Any bike in the hands of an experienced rider has a lean angle of 45 degrees. That's nothing special nor scary. Imagine riding this bike on all 4 wheels. No try to imagine how to get it from all four on two wheels (45 degree lean angle), sustaining that through the corner at a reasonable speed and get back at all four wheels again. I tell you, if you can do it, you must be God (no insults intended).

Why do you think motorbikes have two wheels in the first place? With more than two you can never steer it through a corner like a motorbike, it would behave like a car.

Just my opinion as an experienced motorbike rider.
