    Ultimate posers bike? For approx $650,000?

    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?'

    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.

    It sure is the Kay family.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    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
