That's quite a bike. Judging from the seat not made for distances linger than a 1/4 mile.

quicker than my 1996 VW Jetta, in fact a lot quicker...sounds like a mind-boggling rush to accelerate at that rate...

...and don't forget the amazing New Zealander Burt Munro.

It looks interesting, but I don't think I would like to ride it.
