    This is an 8200cc Monster of a Bike. It's like riding a 2-wheeled Train
    Engine.

    Do read the specification. Mind blowing...

    Isnt this the Dodge Viper engined thing ? I thought the motor was
    known to have no internals and was simply a "styling exercise" ?

    Actually, it's 'because it is there', and the "people" was George Mallory.

    I think it was a running engine when it was debuted (judging by the torque
    reaction when the "rider" paddles it in to the stage.)
    Not rideable though. -[Just a marketing wank]

    Errrm, Ed Hillary, in 1953 in a radio interview after his return from
    Nepal, when asked "Why do you climb mountains?" answered "Because they
    are there"
    Not saying that Mallory didn't , just that I remember hearing Hillary.

    Ridden one have you?...Maybe if you had, you'd've noticed that it has 4
    wheels.
    My T595 does 500 miles per hour down to the shops,
    cracks the sound barrier on longer trips,
    does the quarter in 2.8 seconds,
    uses less fuel than a Prius,
    is lighter than a pushbike,
    is blacker than a King Kong's goolies,
    wears out its tyres in three days
    and
    I bought it at a garage sale for three-fiddy and a kickinnanutz.

    There. I said it. It must be true.

    Q.E.D.

    After Mallory said it, the remark was taken up across the mountaineering
    world. "By Jove! What a marvellous retort!". Sort of like a cork's post
    being used in a sig. Or Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, etc, etc, etc,...

    MotorCYCLE perhaps. The bi part of bicycle/bike means two so a motorbike
    can only be two-wheeled.

    "...each pair of wheels..."

    It's a car, not a *bi*ke.
