I call it 1 way ticket to hell...

[corvette97]

that man has a lot of balls...

[gigdy]

top speed : 676 km/h


Im pretty sure the have no idea the topspeed of the bike. It started at like 300mph then it dropped. And still no one knows because no ones gotten the balls yet.

The Tomahawk technically has 4 wheels (you can clearly see they're seperated in the 2nd pic). They also are beginning to build production versions to sell to the public in very limited numbers. The only problem is that they needed to find a better way to cool the engine since it has no radiator and that big 8.3L V10 produces immense amounts of heat.

that man has a lot of balls...
Don't worry, after the ride, he won't have any :mrgreen:
He's old enough, hope he has enough kids already.

:twisted: I go on highway to hell :twisted:
nice bikecar
the limited serie is just 50pcs I think

[FocalSpeed]

It doesn't seem like it would handle tho... Typical American way of thinking... :roll:

[possessed_beaver]

dude - welcome 2 last week..
and can i be the first one to say
WHAT A STUPID AMERICAN PIECE OF SHIT!!!
i mean honstley the hyabusa is anough of a death trap as it is!!
then they make this fucking stupid useless excuse for a bike!

and as for that guy riding it.. with no helmet!! - psyco!

im thinking he's riding a de-tuned version..
and is it just me.. or does it look like it would be more comftable 2 ride on a cactus plant!

[The359]

The bike has a bit of a suspension system, it can lean just like any other bike in the world, the wheels just lean with the bike.

The bike was also riden on stage at the Detroit Auto Show last year without a helmet, the bike is rideable at a slow speed. It's not like it launches as soon as you press the throttle :roll:

And it's a concept vehicle, since when do concept vehicles have to be practical? The people buying this bike more the likely are buying it for the nostalgia, not for actually taking it out on a track.

I'm sure you don't ride bikes... But that bike must be heavy, and when a bike is heavy it means that it wouldn't handle... :roll:

and that guy in the picture is a squid

It seems to be more of a cruiser type of bike then a supersport one... I'm sure they didn't want to build a supersport either.

Actually I read 10 and they aren't being produced by Dodge but by the designer privately

Of course it was never made to handle that well, but it handles well enough to make it driveable.

When I said it wouldn't handle I did not say it is not drivable, it would not be upto my standards of handling. Thats what I ment. Just like Camaro's and other 1/4 mile inspired cars that are American built.

[gigdy]

Good god its a concept to show off the engine. It was never meant to be anything more then that. But some really rich ppl wanted one so whoever is making more but they deliver them as "unrideable" and they cost like 500k.

[blah]

I hate dodge. This is just stupid, Who the hell would want to go 300 MPH on a Bike? you hit one little pot hole and ur done.

[jon_s]

Look at the brakes on that fucker! :shock:

[Garretts_turbo]

Good 'ol american excess at work for ya. that thing must be ridiulous. 500 hp block 'o iron beneath ya, hope ya dont have to turn! thing must weigh more than a kia!

[dutchmasterflex]

i saw this a while back the the New York Auto show at the javitz center.. they had a prototype im assuming.. it was all beat up and what not.. definately not as clean lookin as the one in these pictures..

first thing that came to mind was that it was an absolute waste... its not even a bike! its got 4 wheels which you can easily see...

i'm pretty sure anyone who has tested one of those has gotten burns from that engine...

[altedza]

posted but new pixs are awesome.... that old dude is so dead :x

[oantob]

yes... it's a silly bike, that old dude have to be more carefull because if his legs bump to the side of the engine... ouch... its hot. :!:
I guessing how that old man can handle that big bike like that... talking about turning that v-10 engine... :wink:

[The359]

Right, Americans only do excess...

...oh, wait, 1001hp Bugatti Veyron. :roll:

A lot of Americans like to have cruisers for motorcycles, because America has lots of straight and narrow highways that don't require great handling ability. The roads here are mostly flat as well.

And as for top speed, most people don't take their supercars up to their top speed either.

[lambo4levi]

:twisted: :twisted: :twisted: Okay I can see why no one would want to open that baby up :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: you'd have to have realllllly big arms to hang on at that kinda speeds right? :mrgreen:

True, but if you were dumb enough to go 300+mph on a public street, you are probably better off dead.

ok that quote wins my vote, for argument why america makes shit cars..

please read that statment to yourself a few times..

then realise how stupid it is!

[oantob]

yeah... maybe that old dude think he's a hot shot driving that bike 8) without helmet and also he is a senior citizen...

[Dirk]

This guy is crazy driving in SHORTS on a bike (and especially a DODGE Tomahawk!)

I'd love for you to point out what is wrong with my statement. I'd also like for you to point out a country that DOESN'T make shit cars. :roll:

I agree

But damn! That is one wicked bike :shock:

[italian_stalion_32]

no offence but its not a 2 wheeler its actually 4

[agllp]

its most ugly moto, but whit enought power

[enfermin]

that (what is it?) looks really nice.....it must accelerate like an f1, but doesn't it looks really uncunfortable to ride......the legs of that old man are on fire too...

[oantob]

2 wheels is just a way to describe a bike, (a viper bike) but not that i miss count the wheels... :wink:

[Fleischmann]

I wonder where they got that magic 676km/h number. I seriously doubt if anyone tested it. Anyway, fitting a bike with a Viper V10 engine is simply stupid.

saying america has alot of strait roads is no justification for saying they can make crap cars and bike's that cannot cnr!!

country's that don't make shit cars
ITALY!
GERMANY!

and out of the houndrands and thousands of miles of road in america im sure it aint all strait, but infact very varied!!

[bluesbrother60]

I LOVE IT. What a great philosophy to live by. Take the biggest engine you can find and mount it to the lightest thing you can find. What an ingenious idea. Kudos to Dodge!!!

[bmagni]

its non sense for me. though i like it, but i wouldnt buy it, i like harleys and ducatis.. if i want something fast n thrilling i prefer drvivng cars

[sentra_dude]

I think the Tomahawk is pretty dumb...and it is way too heavy, almost 1500lbs, that's nearly 3x what most bikes weigh. Not to jump on the Hayabusa bandwagon, but a stock Hayabusa weighs ~500lbs and has about 175hp...so if you do the math, a stock hayabusa has a better power to weight ratio. So that makes the $250K Tomahawk look pretty silly IMO...beat by a $10,900 Suzuki. That also makes me think Dodge's constantly changing topspeed claims are total bullshit.

Dude?!?! wtf, chill out man. All he's saying is there are people in America who like to cruise instead of burn up the pavement when they ride...and there are a lot of roads in America that cater to cruising, so it is popular. He never said that was an excuse to build bad cars or motorcycles. :?
