Looks sweet, but w/ that price why wouldn't u go ahead and get a Y2K? At 250mph nobody would care how it looks. Only problem might be emissions testing thou.

That and god help you if you have to ride that thing without ear plugs.

If only Chrysler would have actually built the Tomahawk bike. It is, in essence, a Viper V-10 with a bike built around it.

Yes, the price of death is hefty, but like it says, electronically speed limited, the tires melt going any faster....

I think they are custm tires specifically for this bike too.

Its sick, but I still want a Ducati.

R6s are really nice. My friend has the bike a class under, and that thing is effing loud. I could hear him 2 blocks away.

I like low and slow. I will own a Road King someday. I have one kid in college and the other is a sophomore, I keep getting closer. When I get rid of those expense junkies I will have bucks to get my dream ride.

Oh hell yeah!

Almost 200 miles per hour... I'd love to own that bike and to take a short run across Neveda.


Of course, for a n00b cyclist like me, I'd probably end up a very long smear after I got up to about 100...

Hell, I'd settle for a bike that had a top speed of 70 at this point.

I had my old honda up to 140mph on a closed course back in 2000. Things happen reeeeaallly quick at that speed. I don't see a need to go 200mph in or on anything other than an airplane, heck I don't think I would try for 140mph again.

It's a sweet looking bike though, too bad about the asking price. You can go that fast on 2 wheels for alot less if you where so inclined. Take a hyabusa, strip the ugly bodywork, add a turbo and still easily go 200mph for 70 grand less.

Second that. Took my car up to 140+ on the A4 between Venice and Vicenza, a few years ago ... that was about as fast as I ever want to go under my own control.

A car I would consider trying that fast, under the right conditions. I did it on the honda motorcycle below.

Here is a vid of a turbo busa, they claim 499hp and a top speed of 340kph (211mph) which I wouldn't doubt because at one point in the vid the camera bike is at 290kph (180mph) and the busa goes past it really fast and in a wheel stand.
