Well Chuck Beck is at it again. The former Shelby fabricator, creator of the Shogun, Beck 550 Spyder, and 904, has now created a motorcycle. He said he wanted to make something he could pull up to a Boss Hoss rider and say...."oh look, you have 8 cylinders.......how cute" 
yes.....that is a Lamborghini V12 motorcycle 
He'll have it on display at the Mitty this year!
It looks distorted by speed while sitting still!
Wow, that is just really, really ambiguous looking....

Ace and Gary approve.
I appreciate excess for the sake of excess as much as anyone, but that's just.... hideous.
Lol, it is kind of wang like...especially with that seating position.
Can't believe I didn't see it earlier. I must be slipping.
Dang, beat to the wang punch. 
Six side draft carburetors.
I would rather poke myself in the eye with a really hot french fry.
Interesting looking though.
I dub thee, "the flying sperm."

He missed!
Go big, or go home!
He must have liked it cuz he put a Wang on it.
There's a joke here about a huge red throbbing thing between your legs, but I'm not going to make it.
I tried to think up something smarmy and cute, but all I could come up with was "That's berkeleying ugly."
Waste of a perfectly good engine
Wow, um...
Given enough torque, wouldn't this thing flip straight over on its side when you nail the throttle?
Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should do something.

Longer wheelbase than a Boss Hoss and way down on low end torque compared to a 350 Chevy, I have no idea of the comparative weights though.
I just want to hear it running...
It runs and drives--- Chuck says above 5mph it goes down the road just like a regular bike. It's a little unwieldy at low speeds though.
The engine came from an Espada that had a bad fire. As Chuck is a mad scientist of sorts---he thought it would make for a fun project--- and he has the talent to pull it off.
It's pretty outrageous, and uses a 3spd auto trans.....I'm not sure of the transmission's origin though.
I didn't even notice any of the bodywork until I read all the wang comments. I had to scroll back up, all I saw was Lambo V12 at first.
In reply to Petrolburner:
Once you see it though...
a. Is there enough tire to make it hook up?
b. Are 13 people readily available to help when it falls over?
Hopefully this too will be in a bad fire so the engine can be used for something else.
Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should do something.
Has Mr. Beck become the George Lucas of automotive design?
