Hello,

have you ever seen the "Dolmette"? OK, it's only a 24 Cyl.-bike, but it's pretty cool!

a guy shows up at our local vintage meets sometimes with the best engineered V8 bike I have ever seen. very compact, drives through a honda car FWD auto trans, radiator lays flat under the bike, very compact!
I will try to find some pics.

I saw the bike linked to on this thread when the chassis was being built around the engine unit, the enigine is humongus.
Also there is a guy that lives about 5 miles from me that builds various kawasakis with modified engines. So far I have seen several with 4, 5 and 6 cylinder two strokes of various capacities, a V8 using Z1000 parts on a common crankcase and the best is a V12 using Z1300 parts on a modified crankcase. To date I dont think he is selling it, but he rides it reguarlly and he does some amazing burnouts on it. The exhuast note is real nice to.
