Latest images of the Ferrari-engined V4 motorbike
FEAST YOUR eyes on the latest images of the Ferrari-engined motorcycle designed by Amir Glinik.

The machine first appeared in 2006 and these are the latest images after a further two years' development.



The futuristic V4 machine is powered by half of a Ferrari engine, taken from one of the company's V8 supercars. Glinik also armed the bike with height-adjustable suspension via a central hydraulic motor, a tank-mounted touch screen which allows access to the bike's GPS data and diagnostic system, and hand controls based around an F16 fighter jet.



For more images and information on this stunning machine go to the Ferrari motorcycle website

Re: Latest images of the Ferrari-engined V4 motorbike
Our cats produce more aethetically pleasing turds, that's horrendous.
Surely if the bike's going to have a ferrari engine, they should showcase it, not hide it behind some plastic, shaped like something you'd give the dog to chew on ?
Mr Glinik, I suggest you stop smoking whatever it is that bends your mind so much and do some poper designing. how about hub centre steering, a ducati inspired swingarm and proper mirrors you could actually use. How are you supposed to concentrate on riding, if you have to look straight down at the tank to see how fast you are going etc..... do you actually ride a bike ?

Because we all know how to fly one of those.....

Sorry, I don't like Ferrari cars and now I don't like their bikes.

Re: Latest images of the Ferrari-engined V4 motorbike
how the hell can he say it based on f16 controls? the guy needs to actually look in a cockpit to see its all about ergonomics, designed to be easy to use....those pics are a lesson in what not to do! unless of course only one of the handlebars actually moves to give you steering and the other one slides for throttle lol

Re: Latest images of the Ferrari-engined V4 motorbike
two years development? our kids could design something better looking than that in less than 2 hours,
what about the air flow over that thing, the rider would never stay on it
great piece of crap that will never be made, thank fu*K
