Impossible Design?

[Achelea]

Alrighty, I've been bouncing around goofy ideas again.

In my family, I am the only person that does not ride a Harley Davidson. A few years ago I had an anime called Plastic Little, and in it, the main Character Tita rode what appeared to be a rather interesting designed motorcycle. I've tried to ask around, and everyone tells me it's impossible.
I wanna see what DSMers might think of the bike.

Here is an AMV (Anime Music Video) that features a few shots of the bike. YouTube - Plastic Little AMV

And since there isn't a still of the side profile, here is one I found elsewhere.

Thats a kool looking bike. IMO that would be a difficult bike to make. I'd rather have the bike from AKIRA.

That would be the single most uncomfortable ride ever in the history of bikes... if that's what you want to call it.

"I hit a pothole and my 10 foot long front structural member buckled and impaled my body."

Impossible? No. Nothing is impossible. But there IS a red connecting piece on that front structural member that sits RIGHT in front of your field of vision. So... seeing anything straight ahead would be, not impossible, but very very difficult.

And not being able to see something straight in front of you would lead to Tim's proposed outcome with the buckling and the impaling and so forth.

You could build it, it would be a very awesome and unique show bike. I wouldnt want to try to ride it though.

Actually, in the Anime, the forks are about a foot or so apart, and that cross member piece Doesn't seem to be in her way. It holds the mirrors and the Gauges. If I built it, I would put it higher or lower so It wouldn't be in the way, mostly cause I'm not 5'3" like she appears to be.

With the front tire so far ahead, and being as high as it is, your angle of vision will still make it difficult to see ahead of you.
