Interesting enough… I have no clue why you would want a bike that looked like that silver thing 😛
Maybe it’s just me but that thing looooks ugggllllyyy…
I’ll take a sports car over that any day… Specially since a Sport car would be a cheaper and you could have more girls ride in it :beam:

even for a concept, this thing’s pretty wacky…
i have to question what the engineers at dodge were thinking. imagine seeing a puny human, with all that power rammed into such a lightweight frame, trying to hold on for dear life as it slams into a wall at 300 mph…
this thing will never go into mass production, and plus it looks even worse than it sounds… i mean, _come on_ dodge…
