great
there is no doubt that this man can make some amazing bikes, however I prefer his earlier bikes such as the 2 stroke kawas and the the v8 and v12 kawas as one had to look twice before one realised what they were.This monster is just a little bit too outrageous to be practical, the others IMHO were still practical.

A proper man's bike!
That's an awesome piece of engineering and the finish is top-class. You have to admire the attention to detail. I'd have to consider buying something like that if it was done with a lower displacement engine - I'm thinking Mustang V6. The bike could be made half the size which would make it look slightly less absurd as well as give it better geometry, and be a damned sight cheaper to boot. Even with half the power it would probably be just as quick. We need more bikes like these so that we don't have to put up with castrated retro-pigs like the CB1300 or GSX1400.

Insane bike
I've seen this bike on MCN before.
But once again I have to give props to the builder for doing it. Of course it makes no sense, it isn't practical, probably handles like a cruise ship and weights about as much as some cars but who cares? At least someone is showing some balls to build something others won't.
And speaking of balls - props ot the test riders. It probably felt like shit aboard that bike at speed with no fairing.
