I saw it on The Kneeslider and it I think it's sweet. Let's hope he can take it from a CAD file to the real deal

isn't it a bit odd to put the turbo under the seat, though?

i like teh idea. that's also in part because i like the WRX.
now if only he had used the sti engine.


that thing needs more seat and rear end. there has to be something to keep your ass from sliding off the back end. lol

I do like the Subaru boxer engines, but the aesthetic of this bike is a bit too "futuristic" for me. Parts of it are really neat though. I got excited by the thread title thinking Fuji heavy industries were moving into moto production.

Interesting there aren't scoops to redirect the air through those radiator/intercooler, etc.

This is like a Japanese Tomahawk (http://www.allpar.com/cars/concepts/tomahawk.html) - It is an interesting concept, but in this iteration, the space between the primary drive and the foot peg would be a problem.  Unless you wanted your left boot slowly sanded off.

And, it is ridiculously overpowered.  If the engine was actually closer to the width of the frame, I would like this bike more.  I ain't mad at a turbo twin..

I think it looks great, real or not. Nice mix of future think and industrialness.

Holy huge front sprocket, batman!

Although with the size of the engine, I'm sure it'll be fine.
