reggiT, on 10/25/2007, -0/+45Was I the only one hoping for a Motorcycle/Airplane thing?
saleem, on 10/24/2007, -1/+14What is "biplane" about it?
StigNordas, on 10/24/2007, -1/+14Nice if you're name is Akira and you're off to save the world...
inactive, on 10/25/2007, -0/+13Akira? I think you mean KANEDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
trevlac, on 10/27/2007, -0/+10Reminds me of the Light Cycle from Tron!
everfresh59, on 10/25/2007, -0/+8Straight outta M.A.S.K.!!
monahmat, on 10/25/2007, -0/+6Best comment on that page:

"Wait a minute...Isnt a biplane an aircraft used in WW1 that had a piston engine prop in the front.....arent they some how related to the Red Baron? (Goddamn, that is some terrible frozen Pizza) So by that logic, how is a man that has his face on frozen Pizza boxes related to a Japanese Motorcycle Company?"
StigNordas, on 10/24/2007, -1/+7I think "Bi" in this case referrs to this bike's sexual identity complex. 1/2 cruiser, 1/2 Donkey Dong.
inotocracy, on 10/24/2007, -0/+5Anyone else think Akira when they saw this?
ScarHawk, on 10/25/2007, -2/+6Its essentially an airplane that swings both ways.
Todash19, on 01/28/2008, -0/+4Tatsuo??
that movie was so sweet...
isaactwito, on 10/24/2007, -1/+4No, I was too. It's too bad that car companies are too stupid to actually produce their concept cars. I would buy a motorcycle like that. I know it looks dumb as hell, but really. With how many geeks there are in this world I bet they could turn a profit.
lordspidey, on 10/24/2007, -0/+3/me drools allover the article
albeec13, on 10/25/2007, -2/+5Buried as innacurate because it doesn't fly.
FlyCO, on 10/25/2007, -0/+3will it have a Twin Ceramic Rotor engine?
inactive, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2Dugg, for design.

Why name it Biplane tho? /boggle
gallyjh, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2Robotech?
albeec13, on 10/25/2007, -0/+2False advertisement, I say.
ZenMojo, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2KANEDA!!!!
TETSUO!!!!
AdamFromMyspace, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2That thing is ugly as hell, just like the Dodge Tomahawk. Come on US car makers, stop making gay looking concepts and come out with a production sport bike that I can actually ride.
mrferg, on 10/24/2007, -0/+2Why name an ape Donkey Kong? Translation can be fun.
isaactwito, on 10/24/2007, -0/+1It's like all my dreams from Road Rash have come true! (
nutzngum, on 10/24/2007, -0/+1the bike's cool but the link to "larry king is busting out all over" almost made me choke on my sammich. Not the picture (though it was funny) - but the caption about his brain...almost peed myself.
again, nice bike..but i can't quite figure out where the handle-bars are...
noahhoward, on 10/24/2007, -1/+2It may not suite your tastes but it looks pretty damn good in my opinion.
StigNordas, on 10/24/2007, -0/+1Sure you can ride this: All the way to the gay bar. It'll fit nicely parked between a HD V-Rod and a Honda Rune: http://powersports.honda.com/rune/
robbiedo, on 10/27/2007, -0/+1Prepare for the game grid of TRON.

MikeFallopian, on 10/25/2007, -0/+1Great looking biplane; shame about the wings.
Namakemono, on 10/24/2007, -0/+1I was thinking the same thing. The "Cyclones" from Robotech/Macross. Now if Suzuki can make them transform into a backpack like they did on the show...
mahdaeng, on 10/24/2007, -0/+1How so?
hendrixlives64, on 10/25/2007, -0/+1aww does it have those awesome delayed image lights from akira?!?!?!?!
iSamurai, on 10/24/2007, -0/+1Here's some real life versions of the bike : http://www.burningart.com/meico/moto/akira/
philz, on 10/24/2007, -1/+1Looks good but from what can I see I think that bike's handling must suck...
/Buell FTW
martin1982, on 10/31/2007, -0/+0Simply Amazing!
camaroz06, on 10/24/2007, -1/+1I like the look, it there are remnants of the classic bike stylings in the design.
mllawso, on 10/24/2007, -0/+0Where's the front brake and clutch levers?

silentdragoon, on 10/24/2007, -2/+2i don't get it
TurboBeard, on 10/24/2007, -2/+2You look like *****.
kammy4u, on 10/25/2007, -2/+1It doesn't say anything about flying. They named the bike biplane.
luteslinger, on 10/24/2007, -2/+1Looks more like the Suzuki Bi-sexual
LoganRun, on 10/24/2007, -1/+0It used a WWI biplane as it's influence.
dyslexicsUNTIED, on 10/24/2007, -12/+4that looks like *****
