Default Worlds BIGGEST bike

A German has built the biggest motorbike in the world, using a Russian tank engine.



The news story is here, but doesn't have a lot of information. I can't read the web site address in the photo.

Edit: the web site on the side of the bike is http://www.harzer-bike-schmiede.de/
but it looks like a biker club site.

Something to do if you have a spare tank engine in your back yard.

What happens if you drop it? How the chuff do you pick it back up

Also, bet it's a right git to filter with

Looking at the photo again, it's definitely a bike. The petrol (diesel?) tank looks tiny, you wouldn't get more than a mile down the road before running out of fuel.

I think your looking at filtering the wrong way, with something that size you can just drive over.

There really would be no excuse for the old sorry I didn't see you mate.... Although that thing would probaly destroy a car (or small truck)
