The only problem is, what does it look like when there's a guy sitting on the bike? I mean, does it look like the dude is... ummm, "riding" the skeleton from behind (if you know what I mean)?

Hehe, I also considered that angle. But you would have to give it a female name or call it a ***** a lot or something.

what kind of douchetard would spend that much effort and skill (radiator housing being ignored) into a build and put a car tire on the back?! He'll get what he deserves the first time he tries to turn it.

I would have done more a color theme, like maybe a red or blue frame with the skeleton and a completely black engine so the sketeton stands out more from it.

I don't see where that's a problem, as long as it's a radial tire (can you even buy bias-ply tires anymore???). The Boss Hoss, a bike with a Chevy 350 V-8, which I've ridden (a friggin' blast!) several times, has a car tire on the back, and it doesn't feel any different than riding a Gold Wing or Electra Glide. http://tinyurl.com/y3oshn (Other than the fact that when you sit at a stop light blipping the throttle, you can FEEL the torque from the small-block rocking the bike from side to side, and, of course, the horsepower!) Cool bike...I'd put a Hillary mask on the skull...either Hilary Duff, or Hillary Clinton, depending on my mood, lol...

Between those raked forks and how low/wide the radiator and other hardware sits, do you really think it matters? It obviously isn't intended to be a corner-carver; the rear radial should do just fine.

I looked at it again, the exhaust is appears to be at such a height that the rider would be sucking a lot of fumes. I know that it's pointe outwards, but the wind doesn't know that.
