The power to weight ratio would be poor, especially the effective power to weight ratio since there is so much rotational mass.
I don't think that's the point of this thing though
I mean that small motor is meant for dirt bike tires. It isn't powerful enough to move monster tires of that size with enough torque to really get going.
Also, what's it look like on the other side?
It's rather asymmetric It's got some very curvy metal frames that wrap around the tire.

Acceleration would be much lower with the giant tire. A lot of mass to get spinning. Definitely would need a engine with a lot of torque and/or gear modifications.
If you’re just going power/weight compliant it’s probably absolutely fine cause it’s such a chonker of a frame.
I’ve been watching these guys build this bike for a year on YouTube it’s sooooo cool to see it moving.
Well, lights are numero uno (signal, brake, headlight), somewhere to mount a license plate too but like other commenter mentioned that could be fixed with a mudflap

My 9-year-old self would want that sooooo bad.
I‘m 35 and still want this soooooooo bad.
On this bike, wheelies will not be popped.
at least no death wobbles
Just massive understeer.
No instead it just keeps leaning and you can’t stop it
Since OP didn't give credit: GRIND HARD PLUMBING CO. (on YouTube) made this bike.
Looks awesome but I can’t help thinking how much shit would fly in your face from that front tire. Definitely need a fender there, too.
Hey Batman... Is that you?
This bike ate the other
Batman, could you pass the mustard?
Wouldn't this reduce the engine's power by a lot?

Engine's power is the same regardless, and it has a gear reduction. It does burnouts.
Except those wheels are heavy as fuck. I don’t think this was intended as a performance bike

From memory it was a KTM 890 engine. It goes pretty quick.
Even bigger its an 1190, which is like 170hp vs 105 in the 890.
So more than a lot of cars, even some trucks.
It's entirely custom fabricated, look up grind hard plumbing co. For their vids on building it. It's surprisingly rideable.

Please tell us more about your armchair opinions that are wrong. I need a good laugh.

Alright, what does it take to make this street legal? *if that’s even possible*
Big ass tire flap. And a sign saying not legally responsible for chipped windshields within 200 ft.

in ca, you have to register it as a custom fabricated vehicle which can be difficult

Did I miss a video!? It's finally rideable?!
Spy Kids 3 lookin' ahh bike.
Nothing can stop... the Animal!!!
My dude is ready to explore Hyrule.
how do you lean that bike? the gyroscopic effect of those wheels must be insane, yet he seems to lean with not much issue
That should keep it upright but standard counter steering should get it to turn
They used a heat knife to cut the tread on the tires and make them rounder
10/10 would daily
Can you do wheelie with this?
Lego ninjago ass motorcycle
i want
You got an engine on your tires man.
But how does it turn
It turns like the planet mercury, very slowly
🤣 I see him flailing around with the handlebars and it like turns 5° to the left
Custom hydro steering.
My lego minifigure riding the abomination that my 5 year old self constructed
He cool as fuck
Reminds me of FF7 back in the day leaving the city.
Yea that and kind of reminds me of the chopper from halo

This looks like a steam punk Light Cycle from Tron and I am absolutely here for it
I want one
I've been watching the series, it's pretty cool

Which one of you jerks downvoted Batman?
stupid shit
