Default Big Bore Cruiser; New Giant On The Block
Since when do you classify a 410 as a Big Bore Cruiser?

When 410 is in cubic inches.

I saw a post on this over a year ago and thought nope they'll never finish it, I was wrong.

Gunbus 410 Cubic Inch V-Twin Motorcycle Completed - The Kneeslider

Leonhardt Manufacturing präsentiert die Gunbus - The World's biggest Motorcycle


Can you imagine having to pick this thing up after a tip over?

Yeah, it's only like 1433 Lbs.


Sounds like a fun ride....if you were a giant.

Whoever built this is definitely overcompensating for something.

It's wasted bandwith either way.
