How is this for Avant Garde

Go to the page, they have a neat time lapse video of them building the entire bike and some very careful non-turning videos of it running on public streets.

It ain't practical at all, but it looks nifty.

I guess I just need to appreciate that folks with money sometimes do weird things.

As an engineer......I just see a lot of mismatched parts.

An aircraft engine that makes a lot of torque and HP - mated to a torque converter that likely can't handle the power.
Rims/wheels that can't transmit the power to the pavement.
Suspension and brakes that can't handle the potential acceleration or speed.
A fuel tank that appears to have a 100 mile range mated to a seat and controls that are barely tolerable for a trip around the block.

Can it go around a corner? Huh

Nobody knows, ain't nobody dared to ask it to do that yet (might smudge the purty chrome up).
