I would never operate anything with two wheels.
Anything with less than 4 wheels is unsafe, plain and simple.
The DOT should pull the plug on two-wheel ops and protect the public from these death traps.

It's better to break ground and head into the wind than to break wind and head into the ground.

Jay Leno owns a Y2K - iirc it's powered by an alliston? 250 turboshaft- and has a nifty scrolling message on the back above the license plate "stay back, jet exhaust"
On the discovery thing I watched, Leno laughed about watching some peoples plastic bumpers melt away if they got too close

Idiot....
You're on an aviation forum. I'd like to point out that there are alot of planes flying around with only with 3 wheels!
Who the hell are you to say that bikes are unsafe and should be banned?
They are a form of leisure just like aviation is to alot of people. Lots of private pilots have crashed planes in the past, should flying be banned?
McDonalds makes you fat. Should that be banned too?
Nobody here wants to hear your stupid opinions.

I keep telling these guys that they'd win more races with another engine and another pilot on board, but:

I counted nine cylinders on each bike! Man that'd sound badass with a wide open pipe rolling down the street!

Amazing what a little smiley will do in a post, eh bandit. Why not have another look through that post, and we'll see who comes out the idiot.

The top radial bike is powered by a Rotec R2800, it was built by Jesse James. Not sure about the second one.

Would you like it better if I put a smiley in my post?
I was joking the first time, but now you've confirmed it you really are a clown
