Sometimes all that you would ever want to do in life is to take a ride on the highway on your bike and speed away forgetting all the miseries and worries of the world. However, bikes need a lot of gasoline and that is not really good for our environment. Thus, you would need to consider the implications of using a gasoline bike and avoid using it altogether.
A better choice is to buy an electric bike that is cool, futuristic and fast enough for the average highway. Mavizen has launched their 130 mph electric bike that not only looks awesome but is also pretty futuristic. It comes with a built in web surfer, Wi-Fi and Linux. Imagine if you could stay online when you are riding on those desert highways!

There is nothing better than a bagful of diamonds, they say. However after Swarovski crystals became popular, a woman’s best friend is no more diamonds but these wonderful Swarovski crystals as they are not only more affordable but also far more versatile.
It would be amazingly easy to mod any product with these cool Swarovski crystals and make them all go bling. Take this bike for example. Studded with Swarovski crystals it could make any heads turn and in fact if you rode it on the street people would definitely follow you to rob you. I am sure even women would love to ride this beauty and so would men. The crystal clad MZ motorcycle is one of its kinds and I would love to buy one for myself.

If you are a Street Fighter fan, you would love the Gen-Ryu’s proposal for a hybrid motorcycle. It is based in genesis, the famous motorcycle launched by Yamaha. It comes with the latest electronic control techniques and comes with a really sophisticated technology and electric motor.
The idea is to provide the user an experience that brings the advantages of a scooter with the handling of a motorcycle. It is made of die-cast lightweight aluminium and runs at a power which can be compared to other 1,000cc class motorcycles. The idea behind the motorcycle may not be Ryu, the eponymous hero of Street Fighter.

Victory Motorcycles have unveiled their luxurious looking bikes which come with heavy bodywork and touring amenities. It is also minimalist and doesn’t come with any frills and hence, is a macho bike that only packs in power and vigour. The bike is called CORE and is supposed to be apt as it represents the core of a motorcycle.
It comes with 320mm dual discs and the 469 pound bike comes to a halt instantaneously. It comes with a 1731cc engine and the design looks raw and elemental. The bike also comes with 18 inch X Factor wheels. However, it is not clear when the motorcycles will go on sale and how long we may need to see these monsters on the road.
