Death Machine
It's history lesson time!
A couple of decades ago the fine folks at Kawasaki USA collectively lost their minds and decided to fit turbochargers to some Z bikes they had lying around, without making any improvements to compensate for the bikes' trademark poor handling and twisty frame.
The bikes were only sold for two years before regulatory changes ended their reign of terror.
More details about this beastly machine can be found on Odd-Bike.

OSFW13
Oliver Spencer is one of my favourite brands and I own a pair of their shoes. Recently found out that they've launched a womenswear line. It's pretty inspiring stuff, a nice change from goddamn sweatpants with 'Juicy' sewn across the arse, and the model is stunning too. And as it turns out, Oliver is a badass biker himself. What's not to like?

Wings
"You should have put Red Bull instead. It'll give your bike wings."
"It's a Honda. It's already got wings."

Distinguished Gentleman's Endurance Racer
These are the sort of ideas that barge into your head after browsing through gallery after gallery of endurance racebikes at 5AM in the morning.

That's a W650? Holy shitsnacks.
Flat trackers are just pure awesome.

RDXXX Stinger
Always been a fan of Yamaha's RD line. The RD350 in particular, in yellow with the trademark Yamaha box stripes. Decided to do a futuristic version with hub centre steering after reading about Mead & Tomkinson's amazing 'Nessie' racer. After many iterations it eventually ended up looking like this TZ750.
No two-stroke motor though. They'll probably all have disappeared by the time a bike like this might possibly exist.

Anticipation
One of my favourite photos of all time. Found it on Tumblr some time ago. What I'd give for a ride on a bike through a dry river canal...
