Because <i>he can</i>.

The man in question is an engineering genius who does that for a hobby. Pretty much <i>by hand</i>. He's load of other bikes that are wierd and unusual concoctions. Hand-made V-twins, for example - stuff like that. I seem to remember his paid job is in the defence industry.

I think his wife left him, though.
