Here’s one cool bike with a front suspension made of titanium, aliminum and carbon fiber in order to cut down the weight a little bit. The bike is called Confederate Fighter and it was designed by Neiman Marcus as the first 31 BMW 7 Series model for Christmas.

The Confederate Fighter motorcycle will be available in 45 pieces, as it’s a luxury bike therefore it has to come in Limited-Edition and we all know what this means - the pricing starts from $110,000 so it’s kinda an expensive gift.

The designer claims that the motorcycle can reach speeds of 190 mph thanks to its 120ci 45-degree air-cooled V-Twin engine, however, I think…

For the moment we don’t know if the Magic Tricycle will be environmentally-friendly, but we are sure that it looks great and we would like to see it on the roads.

Enzyme has designed a great motorcycle, that will, unfortunately, remain as a concept. The Icare, as they named it, features a six cylinder 1.8L Honda engine that offers the motorcycle enough power to make any enthusiast say “wow”.

The motorcycle looks designed especially for the Dark Knight, having a really aggressive look.

We will probably have to wait a few years, or even more, until we will be able to ride something like this. Of course, even then, not many will afford it. Until then, watch those stunning photos.

Riding a motorcycle is really cool and the adrenaline is a really nice feeling. Well, somebody thought to change the way that the motorcycle will transport you. Jake Loniak, a student at the Art Center College of Design, has came up with a system that will act as an extension of your body.

His idea came from Biomechatronics and he dubbed his concept as the Deux Ex Machina and will consist of an vertically parking motorcycle that will be managed by 36 pneumatic muscles with 2 linear actuators. The Deus Ex Machina is Yamaha-branded and it will be worn as an exo-skeleton and the helmet will be pneumatically attached.

The in-wheel motor…
