Yeah Vader, but can you imagine the HORROR on the face of the cop that gets called to the wreck?!

there wont be a wreck...because from what I can see form the pics...there is no gas tank.




unless they hid it under the seat...then you can safely bet...there will be a wreck :P

Making a HONDA fast is like coming out of the closet, yeah you might suprise a few people; but in the end.. your still gay.

So would that make this the Bikenator?

Looks pretty cool, albeit rather "delicate", imho.
It was the winter of my heart's desire, the spring of my autumnal fancy, the summer of my discontent; all in all, I think it was Monday.

I see a few glaring problems with this bikes design.
#1 - It has a Harley Motor
#2 - the exhaust pipe - looks it's begging to burn the riders leg
#3 - rake of the front forks. Chopper = serious crappy handling.
#4 - Hard tail frame ie no suspension in the rear = very uncomfortable ride, espc when you hit bumps in the road.

However I should note I'm a function and performance nut when it comes to bikes. If ya cant ride it why own it.

Looks cool though.

Heres another one similar to it I came across a while back:

Need one of those but I would prefer a 1700cc S&S engine in it...

I think they are both beautiful works of art. I don't care about what engine they have, or how or if they handle because I would never set my ass on a suicide pony! lol

what i think is the most creepy about that first bike is the back drop of the owners house. It is all bible belt farm chic. With the white picket and the cut out wooden cows. something about the whole scene just screams mid west serial killer to me.
Chris - Seriously what fountain of youth did the other members of Bauhaus find....they haven't aged a day wile Peter Murphy looks all old and haggard.

Jello Biafra - HE DOES NOT LOOK HAGGARD! Don't say that about Peter! Is there another Guinness over there?

Chris - Nope
