A Motorcycle With a Tank Engine

By John Farrier in Art on Aug 14, 2009 at 3:11 pm

The Panzerbike is a German-built motorcycle with the engine of a T-55 tank inside. That’s a diesel V12 with 620 HP. The bike is 19 feet long, 9 feet wide, and weighs nearly 5 tons. Actually, it’s more like a tractor than a motorcycle, since the sidecar is built-in and it takes two people to steer. Still, Tilo Niebel and his friends at the Harzer Bike company created quite an impressive piece of machinery.

    Reminds me of the trike that Jesse James made from a Ford Peterbilt

    When the road wars begin this will be the weapon and vehicle of choice.

    @Larfin

    Everything doesn’t have to be “green,” even a motorcycle built from recycled WWII parts.
