You are looking at the first image of the Travertson V-Rex - a custom-built cruiser designed around Harley-Davidson's V-Rod engine.

The machine's a collaboration between Australian motorcycle designer Tim Cameron and American bike builder Christian Travert - who's better known for his Y2K turbine-powered 200mph jet bike.

Cameron spent two months designing the V-Rex in 3-D detail on a computer screen using sophisticated computer-modeling software typically employed to create Hollywood special effects.

Working from Cameron's computer designs, Travert then spent the best part of a year hand-crafting the running prototype. If you'd like to buy a V-Rex the it's gonna set you back £28,000 including import taxes.
