Well, the planning and thought that has gone into building that "bike" is just awesome. Not to mention the engineering skills to make it happen.
Barry, I take it to be just an exercise in sheer fun to see if it could be done? Thanks for the pics by the way. It's one of the most amusing engineering (automotive) things I have seen in years!

Wow there's some amazing work done on those custom bikes! That V6 must be a wild ride, open it up on the hwy and it would prob suck you to the tank leaving you 4 breasts and 2 nipples like fighter pilots thumbs!
I got emailed this thing Y2K..............unbelieveble!
$150,000 US turbine engine, 2 speed auto! It must be like riding a bike with a "never ending" redline. In the aircraft/bike shot aparently the L-39 jets doing 150kts(280Kmh) and at the start of the runway goes to max power, the Y2K accels from standing start at this point and beats the jet to the end of the runway!
