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!

September 4, 2009 at 9:51 pmThey say they’re going to add turbos and NOS…w/ just turbos, McLaren pulls like 1100 ponies out of that V12…if memory serves….That thing doesn’t have enough rubber to hook-up 1500 ponies…Better make it a “DUELLIE”…LOL
