I can appreciate just about ANY exercise in the art of motorcycle building, but a Viper V-10 engine?  You end up with a cruiser that you have to ride in a sportbike position...and I can't imagine how HOT it will be with that thing between your legs at stoplights.  Handling/maneuverability must suck.

We won't even discuss tune-ups.

Still, a sorta awesome idea.
On those days when life is a little too much and nothing seems to be going right, I pause for a moment to ponder the wise last words of my grandfather:  "I wonder where the mother bear is?"

Soooo, it's a Tomahawk without all of the Bad A$$ styling? That is one bike I would love to take a test ride on!

i would guess that the first time he tries to use even half of those 500 horses that his chain snaps like a twig.  Its cool cause someone had the money, patience and time to make a one off bike that works but unless you plan on towing a caravan with your motorcycle what the hell would you need a viper engine for.

Good thing the chain is small.  The bike would flop right over on it's side if he gave the throttle a full twist.

Cool that he built it, but he could've just put a turbo on a hayabusa, and had a bike that was actually fun to ride, also with 500hp..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qecCf6fJG4
