Scooter? No. Oddity? HELLS YEAH!

Wednesday, October 1, 2008

We’ve been known to love an oddity or two in our time. We’ve seen quite a few, but I can’t think of one with a power plant as odd as this madness. Even the 24-chainsaw-motor-powered bike can’t compete with the 48 cylinder bike of doom. Looks like it was designed by an obsessive savant. The […]

Our Korean compadres, Furange custom factory, have captured a shot of the Honda DN-01 in the wild. I hear it’s been available for 4 months now, but I haven’t seen a whole lot of photos of one on the streets. If you’ve ever wondered what a DN-01 would look like with extra storage, check out […]

(A poorly built bike is one thing, but a bike that’s out to KEEEL you is a whole ‘nother ballgame!) I was popping around SuperHunky (for some reason) and saw this post called “Worst bikes of all time”. I’ve always been interested in extremes. “What’s the best” is good to know, but “what’s the worst” […]

I know it’s been less than a year since I was last sweating over this bike but a friend of mine in Japan snapped some recent shots of the rare and wonderful Suzuki SW-1. When it came out in 1992 it was VERY unpopular. Today they are highly sought after and will usually sell for […]
