    This is a Motorcycle.


    The Gunbus 410 cubic inch V-Twin motorcycle is complete.

    The monster engine placed in a motorcycle frame of comparable size looked impossible and many who saw the photos were skeptical of the bike ever being finished, but I guess Clemens F. Leonhardt is one of those persistent guys who ignores the naysayers and keeps at his work.


    The fuel-injected, 45 degree 6728 cc/410 cubic inch V-Twin runs through a 3 speed transmission with reverse and actually looks pretty good in its finished state. In fact, everything looks good!

    It puts out 523 foot pounds of torque.

    Seat height is 31.5 inches and overall length is 136 inches.

    It is a little heavy at 1433 pounds so high speed corner carving might be an issue and there aren't any photos of the big bike on the road, so I guess w e'll have to wai t for the road test, that is if someone can actually road test this monster.


    This is actually going to go into limited series production and a sidecar will be available as well, which might help with balance when waiting at a light.


    I don't even want to think about a driveway tipover.

    You would think that the rider wouldn't have enough mass to get the bike tipped over for a corner.

    Parking would be a bit tricky but I would put up with that

    With a chair stuck on the side, that could make one seriously fun, Isaan style, motorcycle taxi. Bit out of my price range though.

    Apart from the engineering side, big engine etc it looks absolutely useless.

    Agreed...it's absolutely useless!

    Now here is an incredible (and functional!) motorcycle.
    Unfortunately, it costs a mere $120,000-US:

    MV Agusta F4CC

    At $120,000, the MV Agusta F4CC is a rare breed of sport bike - Los Angeles Times
