BMW V12 Powered Motorcycle
April 20th, 2006 by Paul Crowe - "The Kneeslider"
If 8 cylinders are good then 12 cylinders are better, right? We showed you the BMW V8 motorcycle the other day and now we’ll show you what happens when someone takes a 5.5 liter BMW V12 and builds a drag bike around it. HMS Sportbikes, over in Germany, has been working on this project, taking the engine from a BMW 750i and creating something a little more sporting. They say it will have twin turbos and NOS but it looks to be a bit short of complete at this point.
Thanks Aaron!

Perhaps not as “smooth” as the v-12 BMV, however, check out this v-12 motorcycle:

I can’t tell from the photos.. ABS? Shaft drive? Hassock-style front fork?
Is it really a BMW?
