Top 10 Futuristic Concept Bike Designs

Innovations are born from ideas, and, in this case, from hand drawn designs. While many of these still remain a sketch in a notepad or a 3-D image in a computer, eventually we could see them riding up the street or highway in our local neighborhood!


10. Icare Motorbike

The Icare is a high-end futuristic bike that includes style and a unique, one of a kind look. Designed by Enzyme in Paris for Honda, the Icare motorcycle is conceptualized to have a 6 cylinder 1800CC engine. This beauty could also be more than just a concept before long considering Enzyme’s last concept, Atomo V1000, went into production.


9. Peraves Monotracer Jet Bike

You may think you saw this design before in a Sci-Fi movie somewhere. The Peraves MonoTracer Jet Bike is an aerodynamic design with speeds that top off at 155 miles per hour. Similar to the controls to a car, the design is a pedal operated accelerator with steering wheel control. The two door, dual seat design is an updated version of the Swiss Econmobile.


8. Wind-Solar Energy Bike

This eco-friendly, wind-solar concept bike conserves energy – your energy that is. Can’t make it up that steep slope? No problem, switch over the automatic motor! The Wind-Solar Energy hybrid bike is covered with solar panels with a spoiler to help provide life force to lighten the bike weight and a motor and electricity coils setting designed at the front and back wheel. This means the Wind-Solar Energy bike can produce electric power while rotating at ordinary times.



7. Harley Davidson 2020


2020 300x300 Top 10 Futuristic Concept Bike Designs


This is not your traditional one of a kind Harley, but it is still one of a kind. This design will be easy to recognize and retains the company’s well-known air-cooled v-twin powerplant. Other features are a powerful 883CC engine with big wheels and bearings. Those are the only design features the company has kept, however, and the design uses a hubless drive system as its centerpiece.


6. Bombadier Embrio

Using hydrogen fuel cells and an electric motor for the main wheel power, the Bombadier Embrio emits only water as its fuel by-product. Gyroscopically balanced, the design is mean to be a one-wheeled recreational and commuting vehicle. This robotic unicycle is a “smart,” or robotic to be more precise, vehicle with sensors to balance passengers. With a trigger on the left handlebar to accelerate and turned by shifting body-weight rather than steering.


5. Detonater V4 6.0

This one of a kind concept bike has taken the bike design one step further. Without conventional steering, the Detonater has an electromagnetic sled behind the front wheel and the rider controls the impulse with two independent handlebars where the front light is mounted.


4. Victory Vision 800

Trying to differentiate themselves from Harley, the Victory Vision 800 is designed to show how innovative and radical Victory’s thinking is. Using a 800CC, parallel-twin engine with a Continuously Variable Transmission, there is no clutch and gear shifting all the foot controls to the handle bars.



3. Hyanide

This all-terrain concept motorcycle looks more like a military tank or high-tech snowmobile than a motorcycle. Using tread rather than wheels, the Hyanide has an advanced turning system making it capable of making sharp, fast turns because the entire frame of the bike bends to make the turn.


2. Batpod

This concept may be the most recognizable from its appearance in The Dark Knight Rises batman movie. Designed by Nathan Crowley, the concept is powered by a high-performance, water-cooled, single-cylinder engine.


1. “One” Folding Bike

Worried about having your bike stolen or simply hoping for a more efficient way of transporting and storing your bike? The “One” folding bike solves your problem by folding into a small super-portable package. A prototype has already been created for the super futuristic design by Thomas Owen, but it doesn’t seem quite road ready yet.

As a memorial to the victims of the 2o10 tsunami in Japan, the owner of a 2004 Harley-Davidson Softail that washed across the Pacific Ocean in a shipping container and was discovered in British Columbia has asked for it to be displayed at the Harley-Davidson museum in Milwaukee. Harley offered to restore or replace the motorcycle, but Ikuo Yokoyama — who’s still living in temporary housing — said it should be preserved instead.

Tsunami-tossed Harley that washed across Pacific Ocean goes on display

Sunday, February 24, 2013

For the past five winters, thousands of people from across Europe have gathered on the frozen surface of a Swedish lake to test the speed potential of every kind of vehicle imaginable. This year’s Speed Weekend lineup included a motorized bathtub on treads, a 40-foot Lincoln Navigator limousine, and several rides best described as ramjets on sleds with handlebars. Because what else is there to do in winter in Sweden but tempt ⋆ at 170 mph?

 

With 40-odd categories, the Orsa event welcomes anything that can move, as long as it has the potential to go fast. Many of the vehicles use treads instead of wheels to grip the ice of Lake Siljan; those who stick with wheels put long metal studs on their tires for traction. With a flat, 2.5-mile course to run, driver fear and mechanical failure tend to be the only limits on speed.

This year’s fastest time came from a modified Audi A4 painted in a General Lee livery that hit 180 mph. The four-wheel class ranged from the usual modified Nissan GT-R’s to a 1994 Buick Roadmaster station wagon to a smattering of Volvos and Saabs with engine swaps, reflecting the deep Swedish appreciation of all things hot rod.

It’s in the lesser classes where Orsa Speed Weekend transforms into a Winter Olympics of mechanical insanity. The field stands ready to accept anything with an engine, from a Harley-Davidson chopper with rear treads instead of a tire to this bathtub/snowmachine combination. And the event usually draws a number of people who’ve taken jet engines or turbines and built sleds around them; what they lack in top speed and reliability they make up for in fire-belching, eardrum-piercing entertainment.
