This is a one off and the only one made. It sports the Cobra North logo and everything.
Unrealistic? Maybe, but damn cool looking. You guys saw it here first.

This is factory level production, not done in some guys shed. Just like Mike is always talking about, factory level production. It was done at the same place that did the H.A.T.E. tanks. It's a one off so it costs more to produce and is the only one in existence.

The SNAKE looks awesome, and I knew someone was going to do one sooner or later. I'm surprised at how good it looks with all that surface detail.

Believe it or not that was talked about. It won't happen. Too many pieces to try to make work.

Assuming the shop would let you keep the Silver Mirage motorcycle body and sidecar halves together, there is still 3 rims, 2 wheel pins, the backpack fairing and the front cowling. And that's just the "silver" parts, it would be even more expensive to chrome all the green parts in addition.
It would be cheaper to find a real used motorcycle than chrome this!

How sad is it that as soon as I saw the title to this thread I thought "there's goes Mike again with the chrome" Sorry I was wrong, Mike, but I knew I was right about the subject
Very sad. I find it very sad that you wanted to bring a light hearted thread down by being negative.
It's my custom. I had it made in a factory. It's not mass produced and I'm rather pleased with it. I've had it for quite some time and thought I would share with my buddies that I speak with daily here on Joe Canuck.

Negativity was not intended. Sarcasm was. Not trying to bring anything down. I wish I could send some things to the factory, but money's tight
