I reckon that looks hot! totally impractical yes, but hot. Agemax I think Rexie may have been putting in a message under Ozcats login?

Rexie. Chill out mate. This bike was also shown in Streetfighters magazine as a example of extreme but pointless engineering. That's all Adrian is saying, no need to bite his fuckin' head off!

It's nice, obviously running air suspension on the back too.
But i wouldn't own it and I'd feel like a tool riding it (so, no change there then).

Take 100mm off the back tyre and 300mm out of the swingarm and that would be different.
Otherwise it's just a poser's bike for some wanky american (or wannabe wanky american) to ride past the beach with no shirt and a baseball cap on backwards.

Maybe a side stand too, leaning it up against a wall outside Macca's wouldn't be my idea of cool.

running two chains and i dont know how many sprockets. pretty costly and too many weak points.

i think it is just intended as a show bike just to show off their engineering skills. they do wide tyre kits and oversize swingarms for loads of different bikes.

I reckon if a flat profile tyre was put on it at the back and jacked up just a bit it would be a right fuckin larf down the strip or it would be a larf trying :D

maybe he should just keep the front wheel in the air for the quarter mile then! be in for a heavy landing though ha ha

The latest issue of 2 Wheel Tuner in the States is running a feature on that Bad Boy.

I pretty much like everything bar that useless rear end and the dumby pipes or what ever they are on the side.

Im not too keen on the non floating front disk that only gets covered by about 1/3 of the pad. But I guess if it ain't gonna turn then why make it stop either.:)
