MAN THIS BIKE IS AWSOME......
The Dodge Tomahawk was a non-street legal concept vehicle introduced by dodge at the 2003 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Michigan. Dodge's extraordinary claims of a top speed of 420 mph (680 km/h) were derided by experts in land speed records, and the Tomahawk never demonstrated a speed above 100 mph (160 km/h).
The Art Deco design was the work of Chrysler staff designer Mark Walters and featured the 500 hp (370 kW) 8.3-litre (510 cu in) V10 srt 10 engine from the Dodge viper. The vehicle has two front wheels and two rear wheels, making it a kind of motorised quadricycle rather than a typical motorcycle The pairs of wheels move independently, allowing it to countersteer and lean in turns like a motorcycle.
Hand-built examples of the Tomahawk were offered for sale through the Neiman Marcus catalog at a price of US$ 555,000, and up to nine of them might have sold Dodge emphasized that the bikes were "rolling sculptures" not intended to be ridden.
TOP SPEED:
Dodge initially announced the top speed of the Tomahawk was estimated at 420 mph (680 km/h), but later revised this downward to 300 mph (480 km/h), and spokesmen did not answer questions on how this estimate was calculated.
