Where the fuck is my futuristic motorcycle? I'm tired of waiting.

I want on-board computer with an upgraded siri, gps, phone, charging hub, google glass on my helmet and fully electrically powered.

Okay, princess. But after a few months of owning one you're going to end up taking all of that off of it anyway. That's what it means to be cool. It means that, besides the ignition, you don't believe in using electricity. You're going to start fetishizing the dead bird combustor, and then you're going to get tattoos and pretend you fought in WWII. Then and only then do you get to tell a bunch of nerds what kind of motorcycles to make. AND IT BETTER BE AIR COOLED AND SHAFT DRIVEN!!!11one

FUCKING NERDS...

The thought of grabbing onto a 300hp motor with two wheels attached weighing 215kg seems plenty futuristic to me.

Here you go, a Silver Arrow from the 50s. Just imagine a stirling or fully electric engine :D.

Seems to me that aesthetically, the biggest thing that sets motorcycles apart from cars is that the look of a rider is much more essential to the look of the bike than that of a driver to a car. This is why, in the context of reality, sport bikes look stupid as shit: it's always some tasteless dudebro with a t-shirt and and a pair of Oakleys riding one, and it looks goofy as shit.

I mean, what kind of person is supposed to actually look cool riding down the street on that anime-ass shit?

>>1068214
Ok this one doesn't even look cool without a rider. Straight-up teenage boy Monster Energy aesthetics.

Is this a bike for amputees? Is this what you buy after you lose both your legs crashing a normal sports bike?
Because there is literally nowhere to put your legs in that thing.

It really looks kinda cool, though a bit too flamboyant for me personally and I would go with the NC750X or the new X-ADV (pic related) which have more or less the same engine. But if you like if every person turns their head if you pass them, the Vultus is one of the best bikes, especially in that price range.

So a electric motorcycle with a docking station for your smartphone?
I am building such a thing at the moment, it already has 15.000W of power and is powered by a 20S 10,4Ah LiPo drawing 220A.
It is ideal for commuting in a city...

Sadly these fuckers overheat pretty fast if you use too high amps for long, but they can take pretty decent amps for a short time...
