I thought perhaps this could be a modeling subject for someone with more skills than me!

I saw it today in person at the Atlanta International Auto Show! It looks cool but as you can see it has no aerodynamic body work so speed and stability are going to be lacking. I would have to see it run to believe it actually could, it didn't look road worthy at all, it's prolly just a concept and that's it.:)

Don't plan on riding it for long when you consider the heat a V10 makes.

its got special heat sheilding, somethign about using ceramics.
they have everything planned out
4 wheels all have independant steering and 2 swingarms connect the wheels, they say it rides like a normal bike, there is a balancing mechanism inside the bike to make it stand up when not being ridden.
here is a pic from my magazine

Dude, the article says they are considering a production run, not that the bike is IN production. The caption in the picture reads " might see production". I think it's just a show bike to get Daimler Chrysler some attention, and it worked!:)

This bike is absurd. It certainly attracts the yahoos with the numbers and the weird styling. It gets attention, but it's anything but a serious motorcycle.
450 mph? 1200 lbs? 500 horsepower? Please. My bike with less than 100 hp will run with a Viper...that's fast enough for an experienced rider, I can imagine what happens when some rap star or lawyer jumps on one for the first time. This is a show bike, complete and total overkill.
If they can even muscle this beast into the street, they're simply going to end up Darwin Award recipients or organ donors.
Nice concept, but better left on display in a museum than letting some overpaid yahoo onto the street with it. Yeah, it's a running prototype, and they might produce it. But to me it's just an overpriced 500hp fantasy beast for someone who thinks they're lacking somewhere, and replace that with something more powerful between their legs. And this conveyance of pleasure can get them in a hell of a lot of trouble too fast as well!:rolleyes: :eek: :devil:
Basically, kids, don't try this at home.

Can a Cobra go 400 mph? Of course not. But I wouldn't want this motercycle either. It has a 5 gallon gas tank! How long can a V10 run on 5 gallons???

It also can go 0 to 60 in 2 SECONDS! Take that the street racing circut and win some cash back....as long as you can hold on.

seriously, this bike doesn't seem very practical.... 4 wheels, the heat of a v10, the weight of a v10, the lack of any aero dynamics.... it probably sounds like a beast, so it'll be loud as all hell. i would own one, but I wouldn't own it for driving, just as a show car, ya know? it seems like it's too raw.

In the catalogue?!? I have a feeling that they'll be sold before the catalogue is sent out. Yeah it's 550k, but if I had the money it'd be sitting in my garage the day after it goes up for sale.
