Video: Just another Viper V-10 powered motorcycle


What is it with people and their fascination when it comes to mating V10 engines and motorcycles? I'm not really sure if they have a death wish or they just crave attention. Either way, Allen Millyard from the UK has devised another machine that marries insane power to two wheels. This one actually looks more like a traditional motorcycle than the Dodge Tomahawk, albeit with a very long wheelbase.

The SHO packs 365hp thanks to it's twin turbo V6, a staggering number until you have the sobering realization that the car it lives in weighs 4,300 pounds. But that kind of power output still got this guy a respectable slip with a 13.92 1/4 mile time at 100mph.
