This is the best thing ever ! I read the report on the Website. I can't believe how well thought out it is, and yet it is so so simple. It is so far ahead of everyone else. I hope Harley buys this from him. I NEEEED this !!

I have been doing more reading.
Get this .... The "side-pods" have several functions including keeping water out of the two tank-top air-intakes while crossing a deep creek ! |

Thanks for the comments. After 9 years of careful engineering, the bike is no longer just a "design concept" and is ready for prime-time. We will be taking pre-orders soon.
I originally designed this with the military in mind and their need for an extreme off-road go-anywhere never breakdown solution. They are now limited to a Kawasaki 650 (don't laugh). It turned out that it makes a great civilian bike too. I chose colors that change shade with light. For example the bright "Porsche red" turns into a candy red in lower light. I put more detail into this than you would believe. The engine mounts are also the oil-lines. many parts serve two or more functions. I couldn't make it any simpler or remove anymore parts and make it better. |

Change is good, Its about time someone has moved ahead.If you don`t change with the times you ( it ) becomes obsolete.
