That's a really cool sighting! I'd love to meet Jay Leno some day. Actually, that might be my best excuse to move out to Cali!

He's out there a lot. I remember once I rode by the Rock Store and saw this old 4 cyl Bugatti motoring past. I thought it was the coolest thing I'd seen since breakfast. Went home and looked at the site for the guy that takes pic there...turns out it was Jay. Didn't even notice

Very cool Sean! I've actually run into him numerous times at the RS as well. The coolest thing I saw was his Y2K superbike. It sounded like a freaking helicopter firing up. Super nice guy.

That's pretty good. I wonder why it wasn't continued to develop. Zero co2 emission is pretty neat, but I guess the petrol engines took over in that era as they were more powerful.

There is definately co2 emission. What do you think is heating the water to make the steam!
