Jim Musser's Sportcycle from USA.
Bloke tried to bring it over here years ago, but it all came to nothing.

Sorry to digress but I find it really funny....... the donor bike still has the seat attached 
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

How else do you expect to take the wife out if there wasn't a seat still on it?

Doesn't the driver operate it from the bike seat and the missus barks orders from the cockpit?

Does anyone on here happen to know of one of these on the road either here or in the States? I've recently been told there were only 3 made
& 2 have been written off - the one pictured here being, supposedly, the last one left???
This doesn't sound all that likely, I thought there were quite a few sold stateside & I recall someone trying to bring it over here - it was
in one of the kitcar mags somewhere around late '90's early 2000's IIRC
Anyone throw any more light on that?
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

I'm guessing I've been approached by the same people, but I still find it unlikely that there is only one left ....................., one
left in the UK I would believe, but surely more in the States?

I saw one of those outside the Manchester bike show last year. I think it was red and white but there was no seat on the doner bike.

Pretty sure a mate of a mate bought the right / plans for this years ago and also had the demo 'car' with a ZX9R stuck up its chuff. He
planned to market them but I don't think it ever got off the ground. Apparently the demo was a proper handful and he managed to mount a kerb and
wipe out a shop sign just pulling out of a junction
