The fact that Kanye West ever even touched this thing is a damn travesty.

No, wait. There's still hope. He only "signed" it, so we only know for sure that his pen touched it. |

Nice bike, total SOB, both as a person and a musician but mainly as a person.
That guy thinks he's all that in the music industry when he's living in an era where music is practically on life support and he's not the reason for that. He's just as disposable as everyone else today, and when he retires or dies he won't be remembered, in fact it won't be a surprise if people in the future say 'I used to like this crap?!' That's just how music has become, nearly all singers in mainstream are disposable manufactured products that don't last long enough. The guy needs to accept the fact that he's also part of that list along with Usher, Justin Timberlake and whatnot. He's no contributor to music, he's no major influence to anyone, he's not important the way Michael Jackson and Elves were, even The Backstreet Boys and they're practically remembered with little care and may eventually be forgotten entirely some time in the future.

the fact that he calls "stronger" a tribute song to akira and daft punk is in my opinion a travesty, when the hell is a booty song a tribute.

Boo-hoo, the person I don't like likes something I like, and now that something is ruined.

I'd buy it and then wipe his signature off.

Wow. I forgot how ignorant and foolishly offensive on purpose that song is. Why does he have to put his horrible lyrics over such a good song as Harder Better Faster Stronger? I honestly swear West is literally mentally retarded. He has to had some kinda of condition. The fact that he can rap and rhyme doesn't mean his intelligence is anywhere near normal cognition. This is who kids and even us older folk look up to? I don't care if he's a freaking weeaboo and likes Akira and Takashi Murakami. Or that Daft Punk worked with him. The man is a loud mouthed moron. The only difference between him and hundreds of other fans wanting to make Kaneda's bike and an Akira fan film is that he got a studio to give him more money than he knows what to do with.
Well. It could be worse. Souldja Boy and his anime raps make Kanye seems like a damn Nobel Laureate. |

Darn it... let this be a lesson to you kids... read an article carefully the first time through.
I just sat through that entire ridiculous video waiting to see the motorcycle when apparently it was cut from the final video. And "nonoperational"? Fail. |

I know I know, how dare a celebrity be an anime fan, how dare they. I personally like Kanye's music, not so much a fan of the guy himself but come on, get over it.

It's seriously pathetic how many of you are whining and bitching just because a celebrity you're not fond of happens to be fond of anime you like+signed a replica of something from the aforementioned anime.
Bitter doesn't look too good on any of you. Get over it.

$4000 isn't bad at all for a starting price, if I had the money I'd definitely go for it (and if I knew more about things like this I'd probably turn it into one of those car rides you see outside of a lot of grocery stores for kids
 ). I think it's great that there are celebrities with similar interests such as West, and I thought the music video was awesome when it came out.

I agree, I don't know what's wrong with people on this forum whining about celebs liking anime. But I'm glad to see celebs are liking anime. I don't see people complaining about Vin Diesel about being a Dungeon and Dragon fan/player. Where's the complaint about Daniel Craig being a video gamer? Let me show you this chart that involve celebs that are anime fans: 
I recalled that Megan Fox is also a anime when I read a article on Cosmogirls magazine online. |

If the bike works, I'm all for it! I always thought Kaneda's bite was sexy.
Looks like it's missing something though. More stickers? It has a plastic look?

huh, interesting list of them being anime fans, hogan doesnt seem like a true anime fan but interesting to see, surprised also to see daniel radcliff on the list, hell if they actually did a bleach live action movie and did it right, i could see him passing as uryu, christian bale is no surprise either, seeing as how he voiced the character howl in howl's moving castle, which is an awesome miyazaki movie
