The bad news is the thing carries just enough fuel to get you to the next gas station 2 blocks down the road. Also, fire is cool and all, but properly run jet engines don't generally billow clouds of fire and smoke.

This is a bike jet, not a jet bike. Since it looks like a jet engine is trying to swallow some guy's Harley like a giant Wachowsky Bros-borne fish.

The Y2K bike wins overall for subtlety.
