Twin jet engine motorcycle is crazy expensive, crazy awesome

Dan Seitz Contributing Writer, Tech

So, you don’t want a sports car, or maybe ripping down the highway in a Lambo at 198mph is just too safe for you. You’re looking for some thrills, and possibly a truly awesome obituary if things go horribly wrong. Well, my friend, we’ve got just the custom motorcycle for you: the world’s only twin jet engine classic Harley.

harley davidson twin jet engine bike meadj 500x363 135x95 Twin jet engine motorcycle is crazy expensive, crazy awesomeThis custom bike is based around a 1929 Harley-Davidson design with, of course, two very important extras: those twin jet engines.

These serve two purposes: one, they’re really, really loud, because Harley riders are apparently inherently constantly in need of attention. The seller promises that the bike will rattle windows for, literally, a five block radius, which we suppose is very useful if you hate every last neighbor. And secondly, so it can go 200 miles an hour.

No, we didn’t have a typo there: this beast has a 200mph top speed. Obviously, the customizer has tweaked the controls heavily so that you can actually steer the thing at 200mph instead of taking it down a straightaway and winding up as “that smear that used to be that guy” on the highway, but this thing is still a monster.

And it can be yours, for only $25,000. No, really, that’s the asking price. You can bid on it on eBay!
