    Guy's at a classic bike show. Has a Kawasaki KZ1300 with a V6 in it. Apparently he does lots of engine hacks like putting a Viper V10 engine in a bike...

    "So, I suppose you're going to be building a V12 next, then?"

    "I don't know if it can be done... CHALLENGE ACCEPTED."

    No video of the beast, but he took two stock V6 engines and glommed them together. Voila -- instant V12!

    on the v10 build, did you see the way the bike torqued over when it fired? lol. Those bikes are the very definition of "Why? because I can"

    He’s well known here in the UK and had spreads in a lot of magazines. Probably most famous for his 5 cylinder Kawasaki 2strokes and many others.
