Speechless, wouldn't want to drive it or own it but would watch some one else try! Must go like stink, briefly.

Strictly speaking that's not a bike. It has four wheels. Could be interesting from a taxation point of view.

I was thinking that too. Surely they would have been better making it a 3 wheeler if they need the extra stability for the weight. I guess different countries perhaps look on it in different ways.

Should have called it Lazarus not Lazareth as you will need bringing back from the dead after riding it.

With a fuel tank of that size I don't think it will hold enough fuel to drive between petrol stations ...

not seen this one before but have seen couple other high capacity v8 conversion bikes and always wondered how they're dealing with heat. After even sedated drive when opening the bonnet such engine generates so much heat that it must be very difficult to sit "on top" of it....

3 buyers already, engineering look good, wouldn't want to ride, but as Davy said, would like to watch someone else

Lazareth told Digital Trends the LM 847 is priced at 200,000 euros

That's a pretty good profit margin, you can buy an engine on ebay for 5k
