I found this one to be rather funny too ^^ take a jet engine from a helicopter, and build a bike around it ![]() http://www.toxicjunction.com/get.asp?i=V2612 ![]() 0-200+ MPH in under 15 seconds ![]() The MTT Y2K is the words first, and only turbine powered superbike. The Y2K is powered by a Rolls Royce Allison Turbine engine, a powerplant usually found in helicopters due to its light weight and profound ability to produce horsepower. Unfortunatley, although the Y2K is a spectacular and competent feat of engineering its styling is another matter. The dead-fish-eye headlights are unattractive to say the least, and the bodywork is plain and uninteresting. However the fact the exhaust temperature is 650 degrees C, and it sounds like an aircraft on take off helps make up for the lack luster exterior design.

You should have left it that deep shiny red
