Now Here's a Batpod You Can Actually Ride
The next step should concentrate on installing actual weapons.
In retrospect, pricing a replica Batpod that lacked road-worthiness at $100,000 was a bad move. Especially since pictures online show another Batpod replica that can actually navigate through traffic.
Few details are available regarding this unique ride at present, save for a testimonial by someone on Reddit: "I actually talked to this guy at Shoreline lake in Mountain View, CA. The guy had this bike custom-built. He said it's a huge chick magnet." So that's why female villains always fall for Batman!
This exotic ride can also apparently travel at night, thanks to the dual headlights mounted near the faux headlights. But it's clearly not for the practical, as this bike requires a car-sized parking slot of its own.

Where's the included Batman mask/helmet?

Agreed. If you're gonna ride this bad boy, you might as well go all out!
Nice concept, although i think this baby could be much cooler if it were smaller right?
Nice, this guy must've put a lot of work into this.
It'a fugly.
its fuwesome
Not nearly as close to the Dark Knight prop as the non road worthy one was.
Wouldn't mind trying it out though!
cool..now I've make some space for this in my batcave
Man, that is sick
Chick magnet?!? Really?
I remember seeing a documentary on the real bike used in the movie.. apparently it was really hard to handle because of the wide tires and long wheel base. I wonder how this one handles as it looks pretty similar.

Because car sized parking slots are rare in these times...

Aren't all parking spots car sized? Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.
A badpod......are you serious? Looks like a mock up Star Wars bike to me. I am wondering where the Ewok's and Stormtroopers are.
two of those with a buggy cage in the middle and you have a Badlands rig.
eh screw that i want the bike from akira
That's going to corner like a school bus. Mount some real weapons on there, bud.
Looks great, but also seems clunky and difficult to handle. I do wonder how it performs.
I dunno.. what CPU does it have again?
