my mate tells me that the Y2K bike is the quickest road legal bike, and if it doesn't do over 220mph you get your money back AND THE BIKE COMES FREE!!!

it should do 240mph tops.

he said there is another bike that does 267mph tops, not road legal though but it is the scariest thing he knows of!! would love to go on that.

fergie.

In answer to your original question...just stick a corner in the way and I'm sure a car will beat it :D

As for the V8 engine, pffft...that's nothing, think I'll have the V10 Tomahawk :twisted:

The Tomahawk is a Viper V-10 based motorcycle, a 500 horsepower engine with four wheels beneath it. The engine breathes through twin throttle bodies mounted right up front. (That's what the two round things above the front tires are - not headlights).

Chrysler sold nine replicas through Neiman Marcus, for up to $555,000 each. The motorcycles cannot be licensed (among other things, they have no headlight), so they cannot be legally driven on public roads. A Chrysler spokesman told Reuters they were meant as rolling sculptures. However, they can probably still be driven on private roads - and that rolling-sculpture comment may be designed to avoid legal liability for anything that might happen to a driver.

The Tomahawk concept is an awesome-sounding machine; we have not driven it, as you may expect, but did see it started up and revved. Clouds of blue smoke vied for attention with the throaty rumble of the mighty V-10, and hitting the gas visibly opened the twin throttle body blades up front where the headlight would normally be. Though deeper and more rumbling than most motorcycles, it did not seem to be louder overall - just deeper and less shrill.

Rumors had the Tomahawk selling for under $200,000, most likely at a loss or breakeven price, for publicity purposes - but still fully drivable. Wolfgang Bernhard, Chrysler's first mate at introduction time, was said to be enthusiastic about that project, so much so that hundreds were projected to be built at under $200,000 each. They reportedly cost Chrysler over $100,000 to build (the work is outsourced).

The Dodge Tomahawk can reach 60 miles an hour in about 2.5 seconds, and has a theoretical top speed of nearly 400 mph. Each pair of wheels is separated by a few inches and each wheel has an independent suspension. Bernhard said four wheels were necessary to handle the power from the engine.

The Tomahawk remains on display at auto shows - though well out of reach of the general public, elevated on a special display.
