The problem now is that any photo can be manipulated and so even what can't speak can now lie.

Remember this one if you get caught by Speed Camera. :wink:

Is it a real bike...No
Could it be a mock up of a bike...Maybe
Could it be a photoshop spesh...Don't know.

I've seen an insane bike with 36 (or there abouts) cylinders in a bike mag before. Real or not, don't always discount something because it's insane! :lol:

It's hard to know what's more monstrous - the haircut or the bike. Really we'd rather the bike existed instead of the haircut.

Looks like a photoshop clone tool used with a fade algorithm. The dimensions are all wrong for a working motorcycle but not a bad job for an amateur graphic designer. The whole set-up is posed and artificial so the digitisation suits the cheap production.

I remember that picture from the 70`s - it was used in an advert but can't remember what for. Even back then we didn't believe it was real.

It's not photoshopped, so someone has actually built it. I'm inclined to believe the theory that it was a non-working bike built specially for an advert.
Even if it doesn't run, someone has put an awful lot of work into creating this - all of the bending of the pipes and making the engine block for example.

Id feel like a right plum pulling up at the lights on that joke of a motorbike!
