Haha! In my post yesterday I was talking about the "Roadog", the world's largest motorcycle. Maybe by 1965 standards I guess, as 2014 brings along the "Gunbus 410. As with anything 'first' built, 'biggest' or 'fastest', one must always qualify and the 'Gunbus' actually claims to be the largest
working motorcycle. Certainly it might qualify for the most expensive, at a whopping $350,000.00. Sitting on a 38" front wheel and 42" rear wheel, and measuring in at almost 3.5 metres long and 1.5 m high, the 350 hp 6.7 litre twin cylinder engine puts out 523 lb-ft of torque. No lack of power but, once again, who'd want to ride it other than for sheer novelty. Like the 'Tomahawk', a very pricey 'rolling sculpture'!
