Rider Profile
| Best For | This is an extreme novelty prototype with a car-derived V8 and four wheels arranged in dual front and rear pairs, so it demands an experienced builder-rider comfortable with wholly unconventional handling rather than a typical motorcycle license holder. |
| Purpose | Built as a one-off engineering showcase and spectacle machine to demonstrate a car engine shoehorned into a motorcycle-style chassis, not as practical transportation. |
| Rider Fit | At roughly 690 kg dry with a massive 5.0-liter V8, this machine requires significant physical strength and confidence to manage its bulk and low-speed balance, especially given its unusual quad-wheel layout. |
| Character | A brash, garage-built curiosity that trades agility and practicality for outrageous displacement and shock value, appealing to riders who love mechanical spectacle over refined dynamics. |
| Not Ideal For | This is not for riders seeking nimble cornering, everyday usability, touring comfort, or any kind of off-road capability. |
