So what do you do if life is a bit on the dull side? How about whacking a 200bhp Ducati 1199 Panigale R motor into a Honda Grom mini-monkey bike?

Yep, that’s what we thought too.. but it’s happened and here’s the result. Built by an engineer called Mario Kleff, an engineer living in Thailand, the bike took a couple of months to build.

It looks loopy and probably was insane to ride – we say ‘was’ because on the first proper test ride the fuel line split, pouring petrol all over the massive motor which caught fire and destroyed the whole project!

Shame, it’s probably become the world’s most easy-to-wheelie motorcycle ever created…
