I wonder what 0-100Mph would be on it. If you could hold on that is.

Looks aerodynamic for a bike, but hideous, like riding an ugly snail.

I don't really like the look of it. Wheels look too big compared to the rest of it.

I like being able to see the engine and shit on a bike.

I like it. I think it's a bit too rounded, I'd like to see some angles incorporated into the body design.

Israeli industrial designer Amir Glinik has come up with an incredible Ferrari motorcycle concept using a modified engine from the Ferrari Enzo supercar. Using drive-by-wire technology, the V4 superbike features hand controls adapted from an F-16 fighter jet and buttons based on those found on the steering wheel of Ferrari’s Formula 1 racecars. Other controls for the sound system and trip computer are located on an all weather touchscreen.

I love it. If I lived another life, and could actually afford one - and actually ride one, I'd go out hunting for tatooed groupies on their retard West Coast wannabe choppers, and burn rubber in circles around them, and holler shit like: Na na na! This is a real bike! It rides like a fighter jet! Yours rides like a front end loader!

I bet you want big wheels for the power she has under her.

Probably.

I'm sure it has power, just taking a wild guess here, but the Enzo is a V12 with 651hp, thats about 54hp per cylinder, if they basically cut off 4 cylinders, you would be looking at about 215hp or so, but I have a feeling it would be less than that as that would basically be a 2000cc bike, which would be too big of a motor I think.

Ugly as fuck.... the cover over the front forks would never work, no travel possible (i know its just a concept render, but w/e) you couldnt ride it with the engine being right under your ass, as the heat would burn the shit out of you, especially with that... seat? Dunno if it can be called that. Cool drawing if you like the look of it (which i obviously don't) but what would be the market? You couldnt race with it (the cornering with that wheelbase and center of gravity and rider position would be impossible, its obviously not gonna be comfortable... I guess its just another one of those rolling sculptures.

Looks uncomfortable, where is the front suspension? And the design of the wheels - headache for the guy who must change the tires one day. No windshield, so not very aerodynamic.
The design on the brakes can be seen in the game MotoGP URT3, when selecting the bike "Ignasio Strano". Same concept, but there it had dual discs, and as seen here, dual brake calipers.
Reading what technical stuff the bike has, it sounds like they have taken away the stuff that makes riding a bike fun.

Interesting use of technology. If I ever want to look like I am riding a very large and brightly colored sex toy this would be my choice...if I were gay. License plate would have to read 8UTT53CH5.
