Landing gear... why didn't they just cut 2 holes in the floorpan and let the driver just put his/her legs down on the road, like a car from the Flinstones? LOL

You're very right, I hate riding in Toronto. People try to kill you in a car let alone on a bike.

ROFLMAO...BrainFade's "Cut two holes...like the Flintstones..."
LOL, that's funny! ;-)
Hey da silva, easy on my Toyota Sequoias...they have a V-8 that rated as an Ultra Low Emmisions Vehicle! (The only Full size V-8 SUV to do this)..basically, it's emmision's ratings equal that of Honda's HYBRID Accord!!!! THAT'S freaking impressive...no? Maybe just a little bit? LOL!
Wuff to the Tomahawk...freaking death mobile for sure, but I'd love to try one out! ;-)

Didn't know where else to post this, but I remembered talking about another crazy superbike (the Tomahawk) here, so I figured this is as good a place as any to post this. Check this out, the Suzuki B-King www.suzukicycles.org/Concept-Suzuki/B-KING.shtmlWOW!!!! How hi-tech can a bike be?! I saw this bike at stickyrubber.com, and there they reckoned that Suzuki will put the bike into production, given enough public demand. I've emailed Suzuki already. hehe

OK, just saw that it made its debut at the 2001 Tokyo motor show, so if it was going into production, it would have by now. DAMMIT.

Indeed Brainfade that Suzuki is a bit old news. Stunning though!!! Here's something else that might get your mouth watering though. Here is a concept bike presented by Moto Guzzi last year, and the latest news is that it will be in production soon!

Wow, nice bike. What's it called and where can I get more info? I went to the official US site, but couldn't get any info...

I understood that tyre dimensions are greatly controlled in the US regarding road vehicles, i.e. groove depth and tyre width.
Not much point pushing 1000hp through tyres that just can’t contact with the road with a 10” tyre width….
(I also doubt the rich Europeans are interested in a big heavy US car whilst Mercedes and BMW with their still rather expensive 7-8 litre models that can actually be practically used on the autobahns….)

PS, I love the autobahn.... (I've only got to 230kph, but I'm working on it)

Maybe I posted from page 2 not realising there was a page three, and it’s not even 12:00pm yet…..

Who has been straight for over a year, honestly….
