A bike you just hang on the wall and admire....like a painting. You can't actually ride either.

A lot of talent involved there, but absolutely no interest in that style of bike.

While there's certainly a ton of great work and extensive effort put into this, I wouldn't even spend 2 minutes looking at this at a show or in the parking lot.

Thinking the "turbo" turning the clutch basket makes no sense, and no power either.

Craftsmanship is and finishes are top notch.

It's not turbocharged, it is centrifugally super charged.

Turbochargers are driven by exhaust gas.
