Amazing Motorcycle!!

Holy crap this is teh Dodge Tomahawk.....fastest motorcycle in the world from what i hear.......it has a dodge viper engine.........



The Viper-powered Dodge Tomahawk concept vehicle shatters all the barriers of conventional thinking about personal transportation. This four-wheel, single-passenger vehicle is a sleek, rolling sculpture that combines art-deco styling with extreme engineering. The 500-horsepower Viper V-10 engine powering the dual rear wheels gives this radical vehicle a potential top speed of nearly 400 miles per hour - for anyone who wants to test it. The Tomahawk roared into public view at the North American International Auto Show.

Initial reaction to the concept vehicle typically comes in two words: 'Wow' and 'why.' The 'wow' is easy to understand from Dodge, the brand that continues to drive its foot to the floor - most recently with the all-new 2003 Viper, Heavy Duty and Light Duty Rams and an SRT lineup dedicated to engineering the most powerful production vehicles in their segments. But 'why' would a company, famous for its innovative car and truck designs, go down this particular path?

The Dodge Tomahawk is a Chrysler Group design concept that is as much a Viper-powered work of art as it is a whole new type of vehicle invention. It is both a sculpture that can be ridden, as well as a bold statement about the Chrysler Group's enthusiast culture and passion for design.

4 wheels is NOT a motorcycle.

That thing is an abomination to the automotive community. Sorry, but I hate it. Interesting idea, though.

I saw it at the Atlanta Auto show, and have known about it for about 6 months... where the hell have y'all been?

By the way... tested top speed is 325 mph.... rider (for obvious reasons) slowed after that... estimated top speed is over 400. 500 hp engine on a 1500 lb frame.

My question: How does it turn?

Of course would you really want to turn at 300+ mph?
