Hi all, I haven't ridden a moorcycle for many years now but they still appeal. My Brother has a Triumph Thruxton which he is very proud of
and I'm very jealous. Anyway he just told me about this Beast and I thought some of you might like to see it.

Al Gore just had a stroke... :eek:
Would it even be remotely possible to get this thing to full speed? And still hold on I mean.

Not in England. There's not enough room. Montana, maybe. I-90 west to east where every freeway exit is named the same: "Ranch access" Whaddya think, Mark?
 
Insane. What does that thing top out at?

Cant think of anywhere in this country apart from the M1 motorway late at night maybe.

Just by the by and again because of my fascination with big powerful and dangerous machines and because of my great interest in WW2 Tanks, particularly those produced by Germany. What do you make of this Monster?

This behemoth never actually made it into production thank God, though as you will see it was approved by Hitler and later cancelled by Albert Speer, but just look at those engine specs.

BTW I must point out I have no affiliation with any pro Nazi orginisations
nor do I have any sympathies with what they were all about, my interest is purely historical.

When I win the lottery, I'm going to strap one of these bad boys on a motorcycle and have permanent, indisputable bragging rights. I think a few chromed cannon-turrets would be a nice touch, too. 5.6 million ft/lbs. of torque! That oughta pop an impressive wheelie.

Some how close down the M25 for the night and just go round and round, man that sounds good!
Put wings on it and you could fly over London!

Man thats big! I could hit it with a shovel!?
 
I think it would be funny, if the Landkreuzer had ever been built, to watch it roll out of the door on it's maiden voyage and immediately sink to its belly in the mud.
