I love seeing things like this. It's a genuine piece of American folk art. It exhibits the highest levels of imagination, creativity, and craftsmanship. I honor you Sir. Well done.

I'm glad this video is finally getting some exposure! The 8:71 BDS blown V8 was built by Tim Cotterill (owner who is shown riding the beast) with John Arruzza, and Michael Lees with a ten gallon fuel cell and three speed and was just delivered Jan, 2009. The bike has around a 144" wheelbase and although not fully proven is estimated to take 1000 bhp running on pump gas. Tim has taken it as fast as 150 MPH in the desert and he's sure there is more in there.

One of the coolest vehicles I have ever seen.

I come back about every 2 months to watch this and get my fix , This bike is king of all. Its the holy grail of trikes. And tim is Awesome.!

Goddamn I love mechanics. When everything is working how you made it and want it to work. Especially a project like this trike. Every day when it is not raining and having this in your garage,is like a new day.

After all these years still awesome dude thanks

This the baddest bike, the frogman is king, rides the coolest ride, everyone else is second.

hahaha => the part when he picked up that woman he used a parachute ;-D never saw that one comming ;-) and then the subtle smile on his face, beautiful ;-D nicely filmed and great piece of art he's riding ;-)

Brilliant creation, and fantastic shooting.

gasp!!! awesome. engineering at its finest.

It´s a 1920 F1 car, it´s a Supercharged Hot Rod, it´s a Bike and it´s a fucking war plane. All in one!!! Great mix of styles, i love it!

Awesome trike with some awesome tech and GREAT looks !

The VIDEO production NEVER put the trike on a dyno.The picture was NEVER 'sped up". We used a camera car to follow and flank the Rocket II. We also mounted the camera in numerous places ON THE TRIKE itself. MOST of the video is shots from the hard mounts. The song people are asking about is an original piece made for the edit. We did have to stop for A LOT of ice to cool that thing down frequently. Tim didn't receive ANY tickets. The crew received THREE in the making of this video.

The coolest ride I have seen in a long time. Just not over functional, allows you to go from A to Z with keeping you to stop between.

I am an Artist and former Custom Car builder and this is the Baddest Piece of Art I have ever seen on three wheels besides the Builders other Vehicles.......

Crazt but beautiful. Blown V8 on a trike? Too insane. I love it.

Love the whistling sound of that big old huffer on that big block.

2019 г. Просто Мега проект!!!! Респект этому парню!!!!

To my wife.... you now have a very clear idea on what i want for Xmas.... I want to thank you in advance for an awesome gift!!

might just be the coolest thing i have ever seen

5:12 "Dude! Go back! I think she fell off in the tunnel!! " Wicked looking machine! 5stars. Almost like something out of The Road Warrior, especially going through the desert.

What a great video! Thanks so much - wishes from vienna (europe).

Brilliant from start to finish.

The video editing is as artistic and well thought out as the strong preforming trike itself...well done

Super Creative work of Art that Goes so very fast

This is the most manliest thing I've ever seen in my life.

Not bad for a boy from Leicester in the UK whos pretty good at carving birds and dont forget those pretty cool frogs he makes. As we say here, "the boy done well". What a stunning trike.

perfect design and perfect execution of the master steering

respect for the creator! damn good craftsmanship!

Frogman,You totally Rock :)

Saw this awesome bike on another post getting hated on by bunch of idiots who don't appreciate craftsmanship. Seeing this front on pulling out the garage at the start of the video put a big grin on my face. This is utterly crazy in the best possible way... love it. Nice video.

WAUUWWW, I THOUGHT I'VE SEEN IT ALL, BUT THIS IS BY FAR THE MOST INCREDIBLE, BEAUTIFULL... WHAT AM I TALKING ABOUT, THERE ARE NO WORDS HOW I CAN DESCRIBE HOW AMAZED I AM BY THIS PEACE OF ART !!!!

One of the horsemen of the apocalypse lol. Awesome ride.

Este trabajo es increible !!

great video of an AWESOME machine...speachless

Was going back to work after my lunch break when, passed by this Crazy Ass trike on Gardena Blvd. I road a couple blocks then thought, I gotta go back and see what the hell that Silver Monster was. That's when I met Tim Cotterill & his Rocket II. Truly the most impressive fab work I have ever seen. Glad I spoke with him, cool dude. When I got back to work I was stoked cuz.... to see fab work like this it really motivates me to do something similar but on a much smaller scale. -Honest Mike

that thing is a work of art !

With that much chrome on his trike, no wonder he has to use sunglasses to ride that beauty!

it's one of the sickest machines I've ever seen and I want one!

Good to watch a cool video with out head banging music nice trike.

Outstanding video

This would be just the thing for my commute to work.

This bike REEKS AWESOMENESS! THE VIDEO IS ALSO FANTASTIC!

Simply Awesome / Beautiful, Chills!

Jesus, Eat your heart out Mad MaX this is fucking awesome

I can only imagine how fun he have on that amazing bike :)

As ridiculous as this thing is, I love the fact that he actually rides it instead of just having it in a garage and not using it.

One fantastic mashine and very beautiful too

installing a front camera definetelly will help on a highway. piece of art

ES IMPRESIONANTE ... QUE BELLLOOOOOOO .. ME ALEGRA EL CORAZON VER ESTA TRANSFORMACION .. FELICITACIONES

Really good... Funny too, liked the smile when he picked up the chick on the side of the road. really nice piece of work. Pretty as some would say.

Wow..A stunning machine you've got there.

HOLY SH*T!!! That is sick! Just idling sound amazing and the acceleration sound is Off tha Chain!

Verry good!!! Fantastic...

This the baddest bike, the frogman is king, rides the coolest ride, everyone else is second.

Very nice video.... very crazy Frogman....

Amazing Machine. The video is great.

Batman needs one of those only in black, nice bike!

I love how he leans into the corners.... like that'll make a difference. Hats off to the engineering tho, we need more of you good sir!

Pissed Off Pete + Dodge Tomahawk = this beast.

brunel would be proud of its design, well done randy and tim

Great machine, great vid.

Stunning bike!

Nicely Done.

that thing is badass, impractical, but freakin badass

That's a piece of art!!!

I use to work three door down from Tim. A true Renaissance man. He does sculpture in bronze and is known around Venice as Frogman. He has another trike, or did that was modeled after a Ferrarri type design. Bad ass. I'm proud to have a couple of his bronzes in my collection.

Now that's just a whole Different kind of crazy kool. Love it!!!!!! 👍🇺🇲🤙✌✌

realy the best,...amazing and a litle bit crazy.

Geez dude that's incredible.
