This is almost a motorcycle. You can ride it, it has a motorcycle engine, but no wheels.
Anyway, this artist guy made a tiger you can ride. It's got a 300cc Rotax in it. But it only goes 6kph.
Still, it's quite cool, and the detailing on the tiger is incredible. The close-up detail of the thing is what's amazing.

Cool, kinda slow though. Not as fast as the Spider Car (I think this is a repost, but if anyones interested).

Just look on YouTube for "Kinetic Art" for more of these crazy contraptions!

Love both of them, although the tiger wins out for not requiring a team of white coated pointy heads as crowd control.
