Hi all

a friend of my dad bought this bike, its a 5.7 litre v8 from a corvette VT1. and has NOS, with the Nos its about 500bhp. I have some vids that im going to upload.

Here are some pics..bare in mind this bike is HUGE the petrol tank is nearly a metre across

And some of the paintwork, looks black but then red in the sun.

Here is a vid of my brother sat on it revving, bare in mind hes about 5ft 10, but he looks small on this.. Plus its on my phone so not as deep as in real life.. Also apologies for the ''Gimme another one''. Was my brothers mechanic..YOu can see the bike rocking side to side because of the engine.

that is absolutely incredible!

[RobSR]

it dont really go round bends i amagine ;)

[Jules-B]

Yeah the guy that owns it said its a bit of a bitch to get used 2, as this version only has one gear, so its like trying to pull off in 3rd. But was told that when you get it going its a nice ride..Was told the newest ones are 2 gears and they have an additional reverse gear

[StarletRick]

that is pointless... to the point where i want it.

[SiCaln]

it dont really go round bends i amagine ;)

with that sort of power it probably scares bends straight
