OH YA! this should be so fun! a friend of or shop was bored the other day so he went out and bought one of marineturbines Y2K's. HE DOESNT EVEN RIDE BIKES.... but he is a big turbine engine fan, has a two engined mr2 and a turbined 280z along with somw other toys. and has stackes of turbines sitting around his house. havent seen it yet but the guy taking our other bikes to las vegas for SEMA had to pick it up so it could go too. next week when the bikes get back the Y2K is going to be hanging around the shop for awhile for us to play with, and throw some custom paint on it. definantly an invitation for stupidity! will fit in perfect right next to out turbine prostreet chopper. I CAN'T WAIT!

Saw one at Hooter's during Bike Week this past spring. I took a picture of Spike as seen in the monitor from the rear camera:
Objects in 'mirror' are larger than they appear
When the guy riding it took off, he did a little burnout in the parking lot.
MTT burnout
My pal Jeff shot a video of the burnout and it is really cool hearing the turbine 'whine'.
