Transformers ROTF Chromia Motorcycle Up for Auction!

WANT.

Beautiful paint. But I know a few people who got killed on bikes. They are basically coffins on wheels.

That IS ******* awesome.

9 times out of 10, when someone is killed on a bike, they were speeding, riding recklessly, riding late at night, and/or drunk or under the influence.

That's why most of us in the medical field refer to crotch rockets as "donorcycles". Personally I'd rather have a motorcycle that could actually survive a collision, like a Harley or a Honda Goldwing...you know, the BIG motorcycles (you can't call em bikes when they are that big and powerful). They don't have the pick-up or speed of the little plastic bikes like Ninjas and the like so riders tend to not speed as much- more for just cruising and enjoying the road and showing off how much chrome you have.

That is false. Statistically most motorcycles accidents are caused by the driver of the other vehicle, not the motorcyclist. That is directly from the Pa Department of Transportation's motorcycle safety manual.

All motorcycles are deadly, regardless of size. A Harley may not have the pickup of a CBR or the top end speed of a Ninja, but the riders are still out in the open. Add in the number of riders that think "I'm not riding very fast and my bike is huge, so I don't need a helmet".

Back to the topic: That bike is awesome. I wish I could afford it. It would be a huges step up from what I am riding now.

Damn! I really disliked ROTF, but even I'd love to own her! um...I mean that. Funny how the bike mode is somehow sexier than her robot mode.

A Chromia worth buying...

1st step learn how to ride
2nd step get some money
3rd step realise that the auction finished years ago.
dangnabbit!

id love to have that bike or even just one like it, thing looks frakin awesome.

Guys just wait until the Elita-1 Repaint and Arcee to come out.

Which is why I'd only buy it to look at it!

Daaaammn sexy sexy ride.
Riding bikes are so dangerous, especially if you live in a place like Vancouver, haha. The drivers here suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. But i'd still ride it coz bikes are badass and chicks love em.

Anyone else notice the headlight sorta looks like Kat's faceplate from Reach, or a Cyberjet faceplate?

anyone else notice that there are completely different bikes in two different photos for the bike seems kinda sketchy to me

You're thinking of cars. You sit on the outside of a bike and I don't know of many coffins on which your corpse is put on the outside of it.


Anyways it's a lovely bike. I certainly wish I could afford it.
