Behold the Ducati-Powered Honda Bike You’ve Always Dreamed of
You know this epic question has crossed your mind before—what kind of bike or car would you build if you had a ton of money, and the thought of a normal production model bored you to death?
Perhaps an LS1-Powered VW Beetle, or maybe a Ducati Panigale 1199 R-powered Honda Grom? The latter was the choice of an undoubtedly rich Thai man by the name of, Mario Kleff. Mario threw all common sense out the window, and just went for it…
The Honda Grom is by all means, a tiny bike, and the Ducati is by all means a super bike, so bringing them together sounded like a great idea! Mario worked extra hard to stuff the massive Italian engine into the miniature Honda frame, but he succeeded, and here’s video proof of what he calls—the Mod Dam:

As it’s the case with most freak creations, success was sweet, but brief. Not too long after the video of his first test run went live, Mario shared the following update on social media: “AFTER SUCCESSFUL TESTRUN MOD DAM GOES IN FIRE BECAUSE OF A FUEL LINE LEAK. BYE BYE MOD DAM”
Thanks to Mario’s perseverance and deep pockets, he’s claimed to be in the market for another Ducati Panigale and soldier on with his Mod Dam dream.
You’re my kind of pal, Mario!
