    More fiendish French Honda 6s



    Guy Coulon's - the technical genius behind much of the Tech3 MotoGP team - made this 300/6, from 2 250/4's - 60hp at 22,000rpm. check out some of the bikes in his garage in this video.

    and Gerard and Lionel Brancquart's CBX1000 - revs to 19,500, has a moto GP Yamaha M1 front end, K5 GSXR rear end, 171 hp @ 17,200rpm and apparently has been checked at 170db ! There's an article on this bike in the June Classic Motorcycle Mechanics.....apparently they have enough parts to make some more....

    A man on a mission to prove that "Loud pipes save lives"... but not ear drums.

    They are pretty cool though - the 300cc one is very nice...

    cool custom jobs, this is slightly off-topic but I've always thought the modified Kawasaki Triples take the cake for being the freakiest custom bikes. some even have chambers on them o.o

    What he said!

    The 300 sounded fantastic - and he rode it!


    If the point of the 1000 was to rev the shit to 19,000 surely a engine could be made to rev to 30,000 but not be rideable .........

    ...I can relate , big time, to the standing around and drinking the audio perfume of an exotic marque singing it's song..singles, twins, triples, fours. sixes, eights, tens, twelves, sixteens...all have a different story to tell...but my wife agrees with the noise bit...I just got told to 'turn that shit down'...

    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.
