i have an old cycle world where they interview leno on the Y2K bike and he tells a story about how he was in traffic one day on it. Anyway I guess he was stopped in heavy traffic and when he took off the lady behind him was honking, when he looked back her bumper was dripping on the ground from the heat of the exhaust on that thing!

its a turbine engine, not a jet engine. Turbine is what a helicopter uses, they aren't jet propultion driven. The turbine turns the chain just like a helicopter turbine engine would turn the propeller. Get it?

300 MPH on a tomahawk.

I don't think so. How fast have you guys been?? I've had my G1K up to 186, and thats about enough to rip my head off with 1 inch of my helmet showing. The diff. between 175 and 186 is huge. Doesn't seem like it would be.
