Message IMHO, the bike is one ugly piece of machinery. Moreover, it looks kind of silly with the two wheels forward and rear--why not just put training wheels on it and be done with it?

Not sure how the rider countersteers into a turn on something like that--I suppose very carefully, right? Also, for $250,000 you can get the new Cadillac Sixteen with a V-16 engine. Not sure why this thing would cost so much when a Viper (including the engine) is far, far less.

Still, there is something to be said for this machine. After all, when you feel the need to do 400 mph around that traffic circle in front of your house... Well, let's face it--there aren't too many bikes that will get ya moving that fast on those back country lanes!!!
