Now, that's just plain weird and he has way too much free time!

That thing used to be over eight feet long...

Now it looks more like twelve feet long.

This must be the new 2009 version of the Honda Valkerie.

I used to think that the only thing worse than four wheels was three wheels. This trumps three like all hell.

Face it, people. If you have an even number of functioning legs, you need an even number of wheels. (This includes six if and only if you're an F1 car designer!)

I refuse to comment on this. Wait, I think I just did.

hmmm no front fenders, I bet when it rains it's a blast to drive. I'm sure pushing 4 car tires as apposed to 1 m/c tire the fuel economy is out the door. Might as well drive your 1 ton duelly. Not to mention at high speeds the tires will grow and might rub each other... that would be exciting


but then again the 1 ton duelly wouldn't have made the front page twice in one week.......

Well play Winger...well played.

Not a Triumph, how about a Goldwing?

Dabble said...

This YouTube video might provide some insight into the mentality behind seemingly insane creations like this badass 5x1 Gold Wing…

Oops! Make that a badass 5x1 Valkyrie…

P.S. Hey Darryl, Is there a way to make a URL in a comment a clickable hyperlink?

It's obvious... that's PIAA's new super secret Cyclops Retinascorch driving lamp. It's powered by it's own self-contained flux capacitor, which is of course incredibly heavy, hence the extensive framework and quad wheels.

PIAA engineers are rumored to be increasingly concerned for the marketability of an 1100 lb. accessory light, but they know some motorcyclists will buy anything for their ride as long as it's chromed!

What moves to allow steering? I can't really tell from the pictures.

5-wheeler or 5th-wheeler?
