A Jaguar enthusiast decided to show the world just how much he loves the automaker by creating a two-wheeler bike with the Jaguar logo built right on to it. It is quite unique – but don’t get too excited because it is not something that can be driven easily.

The engine is either from a Sporty or an air-cooled Buell, though the wheels are definitely from the creator’s parts bin. There’s a custom frame underneath suspending the engine from its top and the rear motor mounts, but the real eye-catcher is the bodywork. We can’t be sure what the leaper is made from but our guess would be composites as it doesn’t appear pounded from metal.
