I always thought this would be a fun format for a vehicle. Need a gnarly tire on the back to keep it going, though.

Recumbent motorcycles

Not sure why I'd never seen something like this before, especially since recumbent bicycles have been around for a long time. Makes sense!



They talk up the magnetic drive, but I just like the position.

UPDATE: Lots more recumbent motorcycles here!

Narrow-track vehicles

Good article and video by GizMag about what they're calling "narrow-track vehicles": the combination of enclosed, 3- or 4-wheel vehicles with a narrow footprint for maneuverability, efficiency, and speed.

Honda EV-cub concept 2WD electric motorcycle

I love the retro-futuro styling on this one, though the spoke lacing is a little sketch. I've been thinking of modding a 1960s Honda 90cc bike to electric for a while, but now I can just wait for the factory fresh version. Pretty sweet.

ZEVS electric motorcycle

Cool electric moto concept. What I think is most interesting about the design is the integration of the motor housing into the monocoque frame. No reason why this wouldn't be possible, and using the motor housing as a structural component could be a very cool weight-saving technique.

Bomber eBike

The Stealth Electric Bikes Bomber eBike looks pretty wild but isn't quite sure what it is. Something between a downhill bike and a motocross bike. Anyway you look at it, 3kW in this baby would be a fun ride.

Wheelman Motorized Skateboard

Gadgets: Wheelman Motorized Skateboard

Fantastically-dangerous way to get around...but pretty elegant too.

Can-Am Spyder 3-wheeled road motorcycle

I guess it only adds a wheel to a standard motorcycle, but the design of this vehicle is pretty cool.
