Is this creation really based on a Harley Davidson?


This was submitted to the Hooniverse Tip Line recently (Thanks Jason), and since it is Two Wheel Tuesday……

The posting is from a Russian Web Site called Bikepost. However, this picture doesn’t look quite right. Is it a Photoshopped image, or could it actually be for real? I vote shopped, but what do the rest of you say?
Oh, and for anyone who wants a crack at translating the original post, here is is:

Harley-Davidson спроектировали и построили мотоцикл XR1200, как попытку попасть в новый для себя сегмент рынка. Мотоцикл стал очень успешным благодаря широкому спектру кастомизации. Но кто бы мог подумать, что кто-то додумается сделать из XR1200 такого монстра. Обычно мастера тюнинга стараются сделать мотоцикл еще более изящным. Но в нашем случае получилась гроза автомобилей и всего, что попадет под колеса.

Good Luck!

    No way those forks wouldn't be pretzeled by the torsional forces exerted by the front wheels. I call shenanigans of some sort, what's the chance of seeing a really hi-res image (2800×2100 or so)?

    Thus saith the Bing translator:
    "Harley-Davidson designed and built motorcycle XR1200, as an attempt to get into a new market segment. Motorcycle became very successful thanks to a wide range of customization. But who would have thought that someone will guess make XR1200 a monster. Tuning Wizard Usually try to make it even more elegant motorcycle. But in our case a thunderstorm cars and anything that gets the wheel."

    I've probably seen something even more stupid in my lifetime, I just don't remember when or what it was.

    Er….it's real….those Swedes again with their long winters and crazy ideas. Answer to question is probably: no, it's not based on HD.

The motorcycle was very successful thanks to a wide range of customization. But who would have thought that someone figured out to make a monster of XR1200. Typically, the master tuning try to make the motorcycle more elegant. But in our case the storm turned out cars and everything that falls under the wheels."

    "Harley-Davidson wanted nothing to do with our project… so we got really motherf*&#ing drunk and built this piece of pure awesome. I would like to have seen Montana… and from up here I can."

    That's what's known as the evolution of a joke, kids…
