Looks mental.
They are marmite bikes. Glad someone has the balls to make one but equally not something i would ever want to own.
Can't really see the point in a bike that you cannot use anywhere.

I had a close up look at one of them at DK the other day. The detail and quality of the components is incredible

I spent about 20 minutes inspecting the one at Brum. Each time you look at something you spot something new attached to it.
It's not the prettiest of bikes but it's a fantastic piece of engineering.

Jesus Christ that is crazy fast. You've really got to have a screw missing to do that on a public road I think

I wouldn't, I think it will only end up badly if I tried (in the same circumstances road closed, know the route etc) that exceeds my talent by about a million haha!!

Haha. I know what you mean Rossgo and I'm the same. I'm glad to say my ambition doesn't out weigh my talent.

I better clarify the above post.
The statement is only true as I don't have much ambition for 206 mph

I'm sure they do occasional days at Bruntingthorpe when you can max out your bike. Would love to do that.
