for those of you that dont know what this is http://www.marineturbine.com/motorsports.asp

here is our new project, this is a bigger version of or prostreet turbine chopper. it will have an allison 250. has a 360 rear to somewhat even out the look since the motor is so wide

Is it just me or does the front of that thing looks like Admiral Ackbar from Star Wars?

Yes, that is the Admiral!

I WILL own a Y2K! After I saw the Leno video last year, I vowed to buy one. I don't care how ugly the front end is...

Hey Tim, isn't it about time for me to come visit, and maybe get a test ride? or 2 or 3 or.....

Actually, Ugly fairing or not that thing is HOT! I also look forward to seeing the new turbine cruiser.

yes its not the prettiest thing in the world, but at the speeds it is able to attain who's going to see it anyway, lmao!

Aeholten, now thats funny! fits it perfect.

what can you say when you are told to pound the hell out of the worlds most expensive and fastest production bike.

it just pulls and pulls and pulls...

as far as the other turbine bike, i think it might end up being a long time coming, i'm just not around the shop as much to fab up stuff for it like i was before i moved. dont think it will be getting built in 26 nights after work like the last one.
