Fighter Jet Motorcycle

I’m Pretty Sure This Isn’t Street Legal

The motorcycle nuts at ICON Motorsports make an interesting observation about their Warthog bike, inspired by the USAF’s A-10 ground-attack fighter that shares the same nickname: “Obviously the first thing that grabs one’s attention is the 800-watt MTX audio system.”

Well, sure, that’s impressive – but I think the minigun mounted to the front of the ‘cycle caught my eye first. That, and it’s hard to miss that the whole thing is decal’d to the nines with ammunition. But I’m sure that audio system sounds killer, too.

The Warthog does everything it can to look mean and fast, and has a few added, nutty frills, such as an 8-inch LCD screen “to view Full Metal Jacket, Iron Eagle, or Top Gun and the ability to broadcast a view of the victims left in its wake via an integrated rear view camera.”

Worried you won’t be able to rock a bike like the Warthog? Well, a matching helmet should give you the confidence you need.
