Ultimate posers bike? For approx $650,000?

[onearmedbandit]

Kay Engineering have over the last 5 years built this 'Ferrari' motorcycle, with the full support of Ferrari, as a tribute to Enzo. Farkin ugly (hmm, maybe that's a bit too harsh) if you ask me, it could only end up being an art piece or a piece of motoring history. 250,ooo pounds will get you this bike, fuck knows where you'd get it serviced though!! 'Ah yeah, I'm after a replacement clutch cover for my Ferrari motorcycle [click], hello, hello, anyone there?'

Farking hell. Why? Ok owning one would make you the most popular motorbiker in NZ, but thats just going too far.

[Highlander]

Maybee it's Rossi's next ride and the real reason he is talking to Ferari.
Wait for them to move in to Moto GP / SBK.

Stick to cars me thinks, can't see much special about this bike other than the badge. But even then, it's no Suzuki.

[quickbuck]

Isn't it the Kay family who build the replica MV Agusta bikes and parts? because thats what the motor looks like

It sure is the Kay family.

[onearmedbandit]

Shit, 118hp claimed from an air-cooled 900cc bike.

Thanks for that, the report I saw in todays press didn't name a build year.

[flash]

that thing looks like a toy for a toddlar...

[kcpies]

looks like it was made in the 1980s bet it would go alright tho, im with loosebruce tho its no suzuki.

[spudchucka]

I reckon it looks horrible. Be stuffed if I'd own one.

[Pixie]

It looks like Kay Engineering found a book called "Racing Bikes of the 1960's" and copied it.

The frame looks like a '73 RD350s

[Bonez]

It looks like they've used the oringinal MV Augusta blue prints. Not bad at all if you ask me- http://www.vintagebike.co.uk/Bike%20Directories/MV%20Agusta%20Bikes/MV%20Agusta%20Index.htm

I'd cut the tale down a bit though.

There was a shaft drive to chain conversion kit for these beasties and they certainly where the nuts guts in their time.

End of history lesson...................

wow thats icky:wacko: .... i'll rather have a ducati sport 1000 retro naked thigimajig [my current dream machine]:rolleyes:

[DirtMad]

Great idea in concept, and im sure the engineering is top notch, but what an ugly shitter! :laugh:

[Colapop]

As DM says "I'm sure the engineering is top notch" given Ferrari's styling I'm surprised at the lines of this bike. It's either retro in the extreme or just f*cking ugly. Not like most other Ferrari's.

[Fishy]

One word sums it up... ghey!. Would rather have my mountain bike than that ugly pile of steaming turd.

[Postie]

look at the riding postion, looks like you need gorilla arms to ride it.
Still if i had won that 11 mill from the jackpot last week, i would buy one, then melt it down and make knee sliders out of it.

LMFAO!! Bling for that!

[Motoracer]

I can see a bit of Testarossa influence on the arse end and the intakes to the airbox. That look should have been left on four wheels.

I wouldn't one myself.

[nudemetalz]

I would rather buy THIS...another of Kay's creations...

This is gorgeous !!
