    Errrrrr,yeah interesting BUT.
    I could buy a lot of XS650s for $150.000 and I asume we're talking $USA here.
    My own next bike will be,I hope a Yamaha VMAX with all the fruit.
    And BTW Wickid, They ain't cruisers ok!!
    $150.000 for a motorcycle,man you would have to be keen.
    Mate,I would even have change after buying a couple of Augusta's.
    Yeah your right a bit silly,,,,,But wouldn't it be fun to try

    Jay Leno's got one. Apparently he melted the bumber of a car behind him at the lights once.

    The turbine's from a wee Helicopter too.

    My Next Bike...Maybe

    Saw this on "The Top 10 Motorcycles Ever Made" or some such thing last night.
    This thing has a helicopter jet engine in it and is quick to say the least.

    Ever notice that anyone slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster is a maniac?

    Yeah, that program was on TV a few weeks ago here. You bloody Australians are always behind the times Suppose you're gonna trade the beast in on a Honda scooter now?

    My comment regarding the jet bike... only in America.

    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    *Start* "Whhhhrrrrrrrrrrrrrr"
    "Holy mother of pearl 250mph!"
    Take off?

    I hear it's only got 2 gears or somethinglikethat. Fast and V.Fast?
    ...but does it go around corners? I doubt it...
    Keep it rubber-side down...
