    eek LOCATED! the ultimate road whale!!

    having seen a recent thread on some of those home built road tanks that some foreigners have built, i remembered having a picture somewhere of what could be described as the ultimate beast as possibly going from the age of it this thing may as well be the T-Rex of home built bikes.

    Where do you shovel the coal in to build up the steam pressure???

    My interpretation of a road whale is anything with "4x4" on it but is only driven on tarseal... AKA "Remuera tractor"

    Looks suspiciously like a tractor engine, still, I'd ride it, coz I've owned a GSX750ESD, which is basically the same thing.

    Why???....
    It's just one of those days, where you don't wanna wake up,
    everything is fucked, everybody sucks,
    You don't really know why but you wanna justify ripping someone's head off

    I'm actually impressed with the hydraulic stand system hes fitted, one in the front on the crash bar & one just behind the passenger seat
    suppose hes got to be commended/committed for the daring design

    the instrument panel is a real nut ripper though
