Two very motivated college students, working on a degree in Industrial Design, had to decide on their thesis project and the end result is one superb piece. The M85 Freeride Motorcycle is a combination of a small motorcycle engine, from the Kawasaki KX85, and handbuilt everything else that comes out somewhere between a KTM 450sxf and a Yeti 303 mountain bike in geometry.

Suzuki Crosscage Photos from Tokyo

From the looks of it, it appears to be powered by an electric motor, which could be the cylindrical object behind the front wheel, there are also no obvious exhaust pipes … [Read more...]
2008 Bimota Tesi 3D Fresh off the Boat
