Nice, if you like that sort of thing, but I wonder if he's aware that in an indirect way Ferrari already make a V4 motorcycle ;)


It's called the Desmosedici, and I'll take one of those please 8) 8)

This was built with permission from Ferrari by David Kay enginnering, as a tribute to Enzo ferrari, built in 1995, 900cc motor, full alloy bodywork. the motor is styled on the MV Agusta as D Kay is also a builder of replica MV's. It had a auction reserve I think of GBP 250K.
Check out this link if it works for info and lots more pics.
