2003 Dodge Tomahawk, concept


You ever wonder what would happen if you shoehorned a 500 hp Dodge Viper V-10 motor onto say.. a motor cycle? Well, wonder no more.

Dodge claims the concept motorcycle (that actually has 4 wheels) can reach speeds in excess of 400 mph. When pressed by pundits, however, they backed that off to 300+. This month's Popular Science (April Edition) has a nice article on the bike. Pundits at the magazine think that fear and drag are the only real limitations of this bike. Plus, based on how the driver has to sit, his arched back might act as a wing, ripping him right off the bike at high speeds. Isn't that a pleasant thought?

Good lord. Do you know how fast I'd kill myself if I had one of those things? I wouldn't be able to resist!

This bike has to be the most amazing thing that I have ever seen! I can't believe that Dodge actually put a 500 horsepower V-10 Viper engine in a motorcycle. That is amazing! I would love to get up close to the new head turning dream machince that I have heard all about. I would do anything just to shake the hand of the man/woman that even had the thought of making this machine.


Thank you,
Cody
