Default Do you like it?



Not sure, At $64,000 it seems a bit expensive. And I would have to get an underslung exhaust system (like a Buell)To tidy up the lines a little.
Engine options of 1753cc and 1852cc would make it a tad thirsty too.

Built in Colorado, see.. http://www.ecossemoto.com/intro1024x768.htm

You can buy a Buell so much cheaper, and basicly the same outcome.

Couldn't ride a crotch rocket without getting hammered by the pain, but I think the bike looks pretty slick. For $64k the motor oughtta be a monster. If not, then it's a waste of an idea.

They really need to tighten up that drive chain, though.

Looks like fun, but the price? How would you afford fuel for it after you paid that much? Seems a little high.

That bike really got my attention. I was wondering, for that much money, does it come with a coffee cup holder and a place for your donuts? I was thinking about buying two of them, one for me and one for my son.
