    Haha, thats just bonkers:D

    Admitately I wouldn't know a hell of a lot about bikes but I would be wondering how one would manage to keep balanced on that thing.

    A V-Twin from a BMW bike into a K10 Micra might make for an interesting conversion but this? Why?

    I don't know much about bikes but isn't it a little dangerous to have a car battery sticking out like that?

    The general idea when fitting a car engine into a bike is to put in a bigger, not smaller engine:

    How about a V-12?

    Turning radius probably sucks.

    Had a look at their website - that thing appears to have a 38 litre 1000bhp engine out of a Russian T55 tank.
