Title: Not a Ducati, definitely a Monster
Post by: roy-nexus-6 on September 06, 2008, 06:54:03 AM
Mad genius.  ;D

The Detonator was a styling exercise never meant for production, but it proved so popular at CoMo's annual party that the brass approved a limited run of 10. Each has a 6-liter V8 engine good for 155 mph.

Seems kinda silly that a 6L V8 is "only" good for 155mph when others can do 155mph with engines 10 times smaller.  :-\

With an engine that big, and using idiots math, it should go like...1550mph.   [cheeky]

Ha ha!  This is how rumors get started... you mis-interpreted that article.  Those are movie type fantasy vehicles with "scripts" that go along with each of that design studio's concepts.  They're definitely not building that thing... Here's another:

This drop-dead gorgeous coupe is the Galaxion 5000, the most technologically advanced vehicle in the CoMo lineup. A xenoramium fusion reactor provides blinding acceleration to 330 mph. Available only in translucent white, unauthorized "Black Edition" models with mile-deep black paint and extensive weaponry have surfaced in the underworld of Tarra 1.

The book is very cool.  I picked it up from their company at the last Comicon.  (I am not so much into comics, but I like picking up art from independent artists, as well as seeing the movie stars.)  What made me buy it was the great art and the descriptions, as if the vehicle were real.  As I shuffled through the pages, I saw the motorcycle images.  I immediately bought it.  The guy running the booth told me that the girl on the cover is actually the artist's girlfriend.  Not the legs of course. 

In the description, it talks about Number 5.  It actually shows 10 or 12 in the book I think, all with different paint jobs and variants, each with their own description.

I actually read the article carefully. But TEN models of this bike were made, just for fun. If you look on rear wheel, you'll see the number of this model.  [thumbsup]
