i agree with nick. the engineering is on a scale that most of the people responding to this forum dont understand. the frame, front and rear end were built from scratch and needed heavy fabrication.
……and for the record its a 5.0L V-12 48 valve motor. not 5.4L.
…and another thing, if their gunna use it, they would use it as a drag bike. its set up perfectly, especially with the slick rear tire.

It would appear to me that none of you seem to appreciate the skill and engineering that went into building this machine.

This is about as ridiculous as strapping a sodding Merlin onto a dinghy. I can think of absolutely no viable reason for this thing, other than for our German friends to show our American friends that alle Deutsche motoren werkes do in fact have cojones hiding under their lap lizards. This is vaguely reminiscent of a war, dare I say!

Remember the ‘gentlemanly agreement’ between the big three in Germany a few years back? Audi, BMW & MB ceding to cap the top speed to 155mph? Well, didn’t that backfire – now there’s a schoolboy-mentalist competition to see who can pack the most power! (Case in point – RS4, V10 M5, SL65 etc. all get humbled by a Mitsubaru Lanceza at top!)

Remember the ‘gentlemanly agreement’ between the big three in Germany after the 1st World War? You know the story – that just led to economic crises and eventually, WW2!

Well, heeere we go again, whip ‘em out and grab a ruler lads, the insanity continues…

Sorry, you said German customizer, but that style 750i (E32) had a 5.0 Liter motor right?

you mean 5.4 Liters? and unless it was europe the 750 only came in iL trim.

They obviously have nothing better to do except sit around with their fingers up their butts.
