Shitcan the rubber tire and mount a section of M-1 Abrams track to it, it would be more stable and you'd never know how many people your running over.

NO..I don't think it did...I think it may have even had a V-Twin in it....looks scary!! I would opt for the tank thread, would be a bit more stable + like RIV said...you can run people over!!!

After looking at the pic a bit more I have to wonder why there isn't a horizontal roll cage of sorts. I'd ride that sucker, hell I'd do what ole' Kneivel couldn't do, I'd jump the snake river with that...well maybe, but it would be fun to watch.

I am not sure the "jumping" would be too tough but the f*ckin' landing would sure be a bitch......

Wonder how you stop that MOFO once ya get it rollin'?? Looks like if ya hit the brakes hard it would lock it all up and the rider would start tumblin' inside it ass over teacup!!!

It's just a big Buell brake with an engine in the middle.
