Had a little look into this bike after watching 'Torque' and I found this video. Not much I'm afraid. Just the guy starting it up. But it does sound impressive. Enjoy...

I don't think that turbine blades spinning that fast near your crotch is such a good idea. Wink

Neither is a cylinder going up and down a few thousand times a minute if you ask me, but there you go.

Those bikes really don't cost that much to run and they also run on diesel. Twisted Evil

I would have thought that engine maintainance would be very expensive on them. Also I can see stray stones from the road being a problem as they hit the blades. Shocked

To be fair, I do have brakes it's just that 2/3's of them don't work, a minor wiggle in the swingarm and one bolt missing from the footrest. Razz But yes I see the irony. Neutral

BTW you forgot to say the speedo doesn't work. Razz Laughing
