Agreed. Ever since I saw one of their bikes shown in Maxim magazine, I knew that they weren't catering to a human crowd. What kind of weird jackass would even think they would look cool riding one.

190mph sounds like a BIG stretch to me. A Hayabusa barely does that, and I would be surprised if this thing made more power than a Busa. Plus it looks like the bike has horrible aerodynamics.
