Metal Sculpture Wants To Create The World's Largest Motorcycle
Gary Greff, a North Dakota native, plans on making the world's
largest motorcycle, which would measure 102 feet from wheel to
wheel and 42 feet from the ground to the handlebar, according to
the Bismarck Tribune.
He wants to build the vehicle next winter and put it together in
the summer of 2012. Greff was inspired by a 2003 Harley-Davidson
Duce, which will be raffled off to help fund creating the huge
sculpture.
Individuals can stop by the Cenex C-store in Regent, North Dakota,
and purchase a $20 raffle ticket. The artist predicts that the
total cost for constructing the motorcycle will be at least
$100,000, the news source reported.
Greff says one of the major motivating factors for building the
titanic motorcycle is he that he wants to make Regent a popular
destination in North Dakota. He plans to put his sculpture on
Enchanted Highway, which is outside the city. He currently has
other pieces displayed on Interstate 94, including grasshoppers,
flying geese, pheasants, deer and fish, reported the news source.
