I know this is not a bike but its still cool..

One of my friends sent this link to me earlier it is a Geo metro powered by a Honda CBR 600 engine. I have always wondered how the hell people build toys like this...

I can one-up that. I built a 900lbs car from scratch that uses the 98 CBR900RR motor. From the look of that video, my car is much, much faster.

That was kinda funny, particularly when they thought the law wads going to get them.
Did anyone check out the 'Brutal Volvo? Doesn't seem right having a Volvo drift car ;D ;D ;D

Seeing how that car was built im half tempted to go looking for another CB to use as a donor for a simular build..however using a metro with a standard trans. same idea in theory but look at it this way...imagine having 5 speeds in reverse alone?
