First, there was the Moon Motorcycle Concept, and now, Bandit9 reveals the ‘EVE Odyssey’. Featuring a unibody chassis made from space-grade aluminum used by NASA spacecraft, it’s powered by an air-cooled, four-stroke 125cc engine, mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox, enabling the bike to reach top speed of 65mph, completed with a range of 156 miles per gallon.
You could either dream about the Tesla Model M, or marvel at the futuristic Zero SR-X Concept. This electric motorcycle, created in collaboration with HUGE Design, is powered by an 82-kW ZF75-10 electric motor generating 110 hp and 140 lb-ft of torque, connected to a ZF17.3 lithium-ion battery that is good for up to 187-miles of range.

CX Air Dynamics’ Cascades airbag pants may look strange, but they might save your life, especially motorcycle riders. CX Air Dynamics and Mo’Cycle are both selling their own versions of these airbag pants / jeans, with just subtle differences. When worn normally, they look like normal pants, but in case of impact, they balloon up to protect the rider.
It’s no Cosmos Charger, but this custom-built, split-wheel Honda CBR 250R is the world’s first. Sketching this project out is one thing, building it took more effort than expected, as Sean Kerr of ‘Bikes and Beards’ first had to extend the bike’s swingarm before a second rear-drive wheel could be fitted.
Elon Musk may never release a Telsa Model M, while Rough Crafts teamed up with Cooler Master to create the ‘Cosmos Charger’. Rough Crafts founder Winston Yeh took a 2020 Harley-Davidson Street Bob and handcrafted a new exterior shell and neon purple LEDs that match those found in Cooler Master’s Vetroo cooling fans for their line of computer cases.
Although it may be a while until we see a Tesla Motorcycle, CarWow is busy putting together drag racing matchups with the Porsche 911 Turbo S, a KTM Red Bull MotoGP bike and then a KTM road motorcycle. Some may dismiss the 911 Turbo S, but this 992-generation model is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.7L flat-six engine generating 641 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque, enabling it to hit 62 mph in just 2.4 seconds.
Limited to just 630-units worldwide, the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini takes design cues from the Huracán STO and is based on the Panigale V4 S 2023. In addition to the livery, it features bespoke forged wheels enhanced by the titanium clamping nut on the rear, a front fender design inspired by the air ducts integrated in the Huracán STO’s “cofango”, and carbon fiber wings.
Can a heavily modified Lamborghini Huracan with a twin-turbocharged 5.2L V10 engine making 1,100 hp, paired with a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox sending power to all wheels defeat a Red Bull MotoGP bike in a drag race? CarWow is back yet again to find out. Compared to the Huracan’s 3,332-pounds, the MotoGP bike weighs 330-pounds, but is powered by a 1.0L V4 engine generating 270 hp.

This isn’t the first Tesla Model M motorcycle, but it definitely updates the design with Cybertruck influences. Unlike the previous concept, this one has a ‘deposit’ feature that acts as a detachable bag to carry your items. This bag would have its own battery that powers the lights and multimedia system as well as anti-theft functions.
The Porsche 918 Spyder is one of the most desirable supercars to this day, powered by a 4.7L V8 generating 600 hp and 398 lb-ft of torque, paired with two electric motors making a combined 282 hp and 546 lb-ft of torque, for a combined 875 hp and 944 lb-ft of torque. Sure, it sounds fast on paper, but is the 918 Spyder quick enough to win against a Redbull KTM Factory Racing Team motorcycle?
