Umm yeah, a 600lb, 130hp dirt-bike, perfect for mud wrestling.

And when the bike wins, you get to wear it as a hat.

"Can somebody get this thing off me please?"

Practical.... maybe not, but sure looks cool! i have room in my garage for something like that.

130 hp? I wish.

Poor thing.
#5
I sort of like the rough and raggard look of it. Almost Mad Max like.
#7

It is supposed to be an homage to the Goose's bike in mad max. It was built by ICON for an ad campaign.

that is badass....
#11
me like, but not for my garage
#12
Interesting.......but not for my garage either. I already have a Yamaha XT 600 that's heavy enough. It goes like stink across the fields and down the gravel roads, but it's a tank at 320lbs. twice the weight and more than twice the power would be a real handful

Looks like something an ex-BMW GS rider might build.
#15
looks like something I would build, right before the application of flat black paint.
#16
And I thought my XR650L was heavy
#17
I like the single seat, does anyone make these?
#18
The seat unit is an early GSXR piece from Airtech in fiberglass. Modified to fit of course.

Personally I would think the stock suspension would be sh!t off road. It wasn't all that great on road!

And I'm not sure how they think this is a homage to the Goose's bike from Mad Max? Doesn't look a thing like it. Or remind me of it in any way.
