Dichotomy of Motion /// - Bikes and Cars, Everyday.
 

This Vette is history.


What you are looking at here is not only a bad ass piece of equipment, but its one of the most successful, and well-traveled Corvette race cars in the world. It also happens to be one of the very few survivors of one of Chevrolet’s “back door” racing programs managed and implemented by Zora Arkus-Duntov.. Starting in 1968, this car was campaigned at Le Mans a total of 6 times, a record no other car has matched. The car is said to have reached speeds of 191 mph on the Mulsanne Straight. Whatever the case, the car should sell on looks alone. Get ready the car goes on the block Saturday. Check out the Auction info here.

No man, no.


This is whats wrong with everything. If they had any creativity, they wouldn't make the "first electric chopper" look like part of a dieing fad... Oh well.

Cook Custom Choppers wins AMD World Championship of Bike Building



Considering America's well-known love affair with custom motorcycles, you might think that the Official World Championship of Custom Bike Building would be dominated by U.S.-based builders. Interestingly, though, this year marks the first time the top prize has been won by an American, in this case Dave Cook of Cook Custom Choppers in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

The winning bike is called Rambler, and it's definitely not the typical custom Harley. In fact, it's not even powered by a V-twin engine. Instead, an air-cooled 550cc four-cylinder engine from International sends power through a modified BMW gearbox and shaft drive to the 21-inch rear wheel. See for yourself in our gallery below.

Second place went to another non-Harley-based custom built by Kris Krome Customs of Freeland, Michigan. Called the Re-flex-tion, the machine is powered by the mill from a Triumph T120. Bronze went to Krugger Speedshop from Belgium for its S&S-powered Overmile. Hit the jump for the official press release and click here for a complete rundown of winners.

Amazing engineering: Alto Performance Vyrus




This Alto Performance Vyrus motorcycle is particularly significant- it's prototypes were picked up by Bimota when they decided to commit major resources to the refinement of the project and teamed up with Vyrus to develop what became the Bimota tesi 3d. Now Vyrus has brought this hub steering design back in house and is in production. There hasn't been any MAJOR advancements in (production) motorcycle design in a while, Its nice to see mfgr's trying to refine the wheel....
