That was my first thought. I bet I could ride that for all of 20 minutes. It just looks so rideable and comfy!  ;)

I think you'd be hard pressed to find anyone here that couldn't come up with another V4 bike they'd rather have.   ;)

I'm sure it's very aerodynamic ... without a rider!  [bang]

I don't get how industrial designers make money putting out garbage like that. I'd be ashamed if I worked for Ferrari and saw this passed around the net, its a damn disgrace.

That is what I was thinking.  The bike or any bike should be built to function with both rider and bike.  Not the bike alone.  Same concept can be said about the form of the bike

A rider on that thing would look out of place.  Like your riding a giant red Dil-0.

Tell me that swing arm isn't going to hit the lip of the body the first time it bounces.

It really is a horribly executed concept.

This looks like something TOm Cruise should have been riding in The Minority Report

What ever Ferrari designs....including a motorcycle, will be mega bucks . If Ferrari put their mind to making a MotoGP bike , I think they would be very competitive in the sport like they have been in Formula 1.

They just aren't into serious bike builing at this time except maybe a scooter line in the near future.  Dolph

If i'm reading this right, it doesn't actually have anything to do with Ferrari other than that some asshat decided to use their name and engine in his flight of fancy.

The engine is sweet looking but for the rest... a disgrace to Ferrari

Not only would it ride out from under you.  As you slid off the back, you would singe both of your nuts on the exhaust pipes.
