Ingenious design, really. The bike does not have a frame, all the major
components bolt directly to the engine, which saves many pounds of weight over a
conventional design, and makes the engine a fully stressed member of the
structure without the inherent flex a bunch of tubes bolted or welded together
might have.

Have a look at this - its only about 7 minutes long, but gives you an insight
into the man and the machine. I like when he drops the hot casting into the old
oil drum and cools it with water from the swimming pool! Also has some shots of
his awesome house.
And Mrkim - about 145kg (approx 320 pounds).

This one is more about the man and his house rather than the bike.
