not to shabby, the guy that built the lambo from scratch in his basement did a little better job looks wise.. sadly tho he didnt think about when it was finished how to get it out of the basement.. they had to dig out the yard and knock a wall of the basement out for him to be able to drive it out

Actually, here in Canuckland, getting them plated is mandatory as most people ride them in the ditches around here. However I think getting them insured for street use would require a lot of hoop jumping! Heck, my insurance company refused to cover my KLR because they said it had "Sport bike attributes"... Yeah, I pretty much fell off my chair laughing at that too, but the insurance girl was not as amused

Cheers!

www.jalopnik.com has alot of interesting motoring stuff.


Snowmobiles are typically required to be registered and in alot of places can pretty much be ridden anywhere except on the road itself unless it is required to get to another trail or something.


I have been to 100+ on a 600cc sled and it doesn't take long. That looks to be more like a 1000cc unit and I am sure it can take most of the sportbikes on the street.

Not in the corners, it won't!

True, but I don't think that matters between stoplights.
