Awesome motorbikes that will probably kill you
<< Back
Ride and/or die May 28, 2009 at 08:09
While the motorbike debate has traditionally been between Japanese superbikes and American roadhogs, things aren't that straightforward. Serious bike aficionados know it's all about customised, one-of-a-kind motorbikes.

Whether it's a restored World War II effort or something straight out of Terminator 4, the world of customised bikes is as arcane as it is expensive. You're looking at over $40 thousand just to get a foot in the door. But then you're not really buying a bike – you're buying a show-piece that will make friends crazy jealous.

Besides, taking any of these out on the open road is a really bad idea. If you don't kill yourself you'll probably cause several Hiroshima style traffic accidents as everyone strains to checkout the bike.

For more head on over to bikeexif.com.

Amazing bikes. There has been a massive shift to customised bikes over the past few years. Dues Machina is a good example. (http://www.deus.com.au/) I think it was started by the founder of Mambo clothing... The bikes seem to only be for the super wealthy ex-ceo types, which kind of sucks. But the bikes are great. Would love to get back on a bike, after 'the crash' I never got back on one.

true Jamie. is actually not all that expensive to just do it yourself if you have a lil mechanical sense. the Deus bikes look rad but damn, $$$! i have also heard a few reviews that some of the work is not all that great.this bike is amazing http://www.falconmotorcycles.com/ also the scene in Japan is crazy! as usual www.bratstyle.com

I love these old school bikes better then the new ones.

I'm all for the OC Chopper! I'd rather ride a death machine that looked cool, than a hectic fast machine that looked like every other bike. Easy Rider Style.

Why can't they make bikes the way the used to, these are so awesome, i want one more then ever now!

That is some bad ass bikes, i love the last one bmw. But you will be surprised what you can come up with when you buy an old cruiser a angle grinder and some pipes, and star to cut and shut.

I customised my GF's scooter by putting Chrome Harley Mirrors on it... She made me take the racing numbers off it though... 69
