If I was a 7 foot baller I would have this.

See picture #5 for scale vs. normal sized motorcycle.

And you thought it was fun watching a Harley softtail rider trying to lift his bike off the ground! That 1400# monster is going to be a hoot to lift off the ground after the many stoplight fallovers it's riders will endure!

I have a few bikes currently

(2) XL600V Transalp 1989 & 1990 that I ride and restore

1977 CB550 Supersport ( done right, not cheesy cafe style)

Harley Heritage ( this was used in SOA, by the Mayans gang and listed in complex magazine as the 5th coolest bike on the show, LOL.) http://www.complex.com/sports/2012/12/the-15-coolest-motorcycles-from-sons-of-anarchy/mayan-96-harley-davidson-heritage-softail

GSX1100G Shaft driver with the gixxer 1100 re-tuned. Heavy and fast as hell.

nice find. This thing is completely bonkers and looks silly for anyone not at least 7 feet tall.

Sadly the Tomahawk is only a "rolling sculpture" and not actually meant for the road.

If you scroll down in that wiki link you can see someone who actually did it right and followed motorcycle engineering principles.
