You Can Buy A Mini Dodge Tomahawk Lookalike For Just $1,000

In 2003, Dodge unveiled its bizarre Tomahawk motorcycle, complete with the 8.3-liter V10 engine from a Viper of the day. Just nine examples were ever built but for fans of the bizarre motorcycle who want to buy a replica for cheap, Road and Track recently stumbled upon the perfect offering.

Head over to Alibaba and you will find that miniaturized versions of the Dodge Tomahawk are currently up for sale with a very reasonable price of about $1,000. Admittedly, it will cost almost $3,300 alone to ship the bike to the United States but even still, it’s a heck of a lot cheaper than the real thing which sold for in excess of $550,000.

Whereas the original Tomahawk sported one of the largest displacement engines offered in a road-going production car, this replica is a little different. In fact, it is powered by a small 150 cc single-cylinder four-stroke engine that’s mated to an automatic transmission with a chain drive.

The design of the bike sticks quite true to the original with twin wheels at the front and rear and small headlights. It also appears as though it can be ridden in two different positions. The first is an upright and more traditional riding position while the presence of pegs near the rear wheels also allows the rider to essentially lie down on the tank and ride it that way.

We doubt it’s particularly safe to ride as one promotional image shows one of the rear wheels lifting off the ground while cornering. Something the bike does have going for it, however, is no less than 34 different exterior paint schemes.
