Jason Wonder was just at the AMD World Championship in Sturgis with his Revolution-2 V-Rod custom. We showed you his Rev-1 in May but he said he was already working on Rev-2 and here it is.

Craig is also behind the concept of the Freedom Machine, one that gets far better mileage and allows us [...]
With the first TTXGP completed and the eGrandPrix about to get under way, we’ll likely see many designs surfacing for electric racing motorcycles. Luca Bar, who we’ve seen here before, sent over this one of his E-Carver.
The design mounts a 130/65-16 tire up front and a 190/55-18 on the rear wheel that has a hub [...]
