That's sexy ... but you'd get squished by the first soccer Mom in a SUV who isn't paying attention. :-)

You mean there are some that are? Oh yeah, that would be the _one_ who isn't talking on her cell phone.

I want one! It was well worth having to open IE to see the video.

Oddly, it was one of the few videos on the net that I can actually veiw nowadays since I _don't_ use IE. I couldn't use IE even if I wanted to.

You know, I am inclined to agree with you. Of course, mine would have a windscreen, and something would have to be done about the noise. And I'd have to have the air intake ducted somewhere else, like maybe where the passenger's head would be, if there were a passenger. Considering the most I've ever spent on a car was $7500, and that was quite a stretch, I don't think it's going to happen any time soon.

But drooling has definitely occurred; which, I suspect, was the point.

I'm sorry, but if a Honda CBR 600RR can't beat a car on the back straight going 120 mph, that's a rider problem, not a bike problem. Modern 600cc sport bikes easily reach 140mph. (Of course, if you look at how the bike and the car began their little race, an experienced motorcyclist can tell that the bike rider is not all that on top of it. The biker's cornering was a bit... conservative, as well.)

Aside from that, the vehicle looks fun, but not worth it, if you actually already ride a bike. ;)

You'know I used to feel the same way, until the proliferation of helmet laws and having to put up with stupid cage drivers made me think it was just not worth it anymore...

Oh, and you're right, that rider isn't even scraping a knee :)

Sysadmin rebel?!

For a second there Tom, watching just the first part of the video, I thought you were going to join us bikers! What a disappointment it turned out to be a cage!! ;-)

Also, Hey There Catness, if you are that Catness!
