17ft long, 3200lb motorcycle
The "Roadog"
"Bikes and Beards" is a (US) youtube channel known for some odd antics. Sean (Bikes and Beards) is friendly with Dale at "Wheels through Time" a Harley museum. Sean buys Roadog and Dale get its running for them to ride. https://www.rideapart.com/news/69253...-riding-video/ Here's Sean's channel (he's religious so there's a Bible verse somewhere in all his videos plus him trying to sell you stuff) he describes the bike's history and its creator (an aerospace engineer) plus more video of it being ridden. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHJ7PtgXSZE

Re: 17ft long, 3200lb motorcycle
Hah, excellent. Although one has to wonder, if you're going to use a car engine, why a crappy old cast-iron inline 4 slogger? A 302cui V8 as used in Corvettes etc wouldn't weigh much more and would put out an easy 250+bhp

Re: 17ft long, 3200lb motorcycle
It just has those two hydraulic legs John. That would be a bit of a task to get it up onto a centre stand!

Re: 17ft long, 3200lb motorcycle
Perhaps a missile launcher on the front for the imbeciles unable to see a 17ft long, 3200lb motorcycle approaching them. "Sorry mate, I didn't"....KABOOM!!!
