There's very little I can say about this. Take one Honda Gold Wing and turn it into a ground bound jet fighter, ... kinda, sorta. He has the sound worked out pretty well, there's a 12,000 rpm turbine inside with a microphone next to it, creating the illusion of a jet on the taxiway. He doesn't cite performance figures except to say he wouldn't take it over 80 mph on the highway. Hmm ...

another trike, ….I guess
So much time.
So many fabrication skills.
So much money.
Such a ridiculous creation.
Such a waste.
another example of someone with far too much money and time..hey! at least it’s not a harley dresser…;-D
Won’t take it over 80mph, eh? Gee, I can’t imagine why!
I live 15 miles from tampa and Ive seen this thing on the road at least 2 diffrent times. I always wondered what it was. It is awesome!
This is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen. I wouldn’t take it over 80 mph either, in fact you’d probably have to pay me to drive it in the first place!
Ahahahahah,
This thing is amazing. Its pretty stupid in terms of any type of practical transportation and you couldn’t pay me enough to “pilot” the thing. However I’m glad that somebody made it. In the same way that I’m glad that some people breed miniature horses.
TO EACH HIS OWN.
Does anyone have a source for sounds of a turbine starting up?
Here are a couple of places to listen/download turbine-noise mp3s:
