Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 - Lamborghini x Bape Snow Sports CarCollaboration. Sometimes the best part about the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 is the number "4" because it means the car's insane amount of power gets distributed to all four wheels. In other words — it destroys snowy mountain roads. All that's left to do is to strap a ski box on top and you're guaranteed to be the first in line at the lift. Marcel Lech Mercifully, a custom shop in Vancouver has done exactly that. In addition to the obvious tumor up top they strapped on a body kit, snow tires, and a subtle camouflage paint job designed by Japanese fashion house Bathing Ape, a.k.a.

Fun fact: the ski box is mounted way up high so that it won't interfere with the Aventador's articulated rear spoiler. Die m-Unit ist die elektronische Schaltzentrale im Motorrad - von motogadget. The m-Unit V.2 is a digital control unit for your motorbike - the 'heart' of the vehicle's electrical system. The m-Unit V.2 can be operated by push-button control or conventional switch controls mounted at the handle bar. The control box is used for switching of all necessary vehicle components and doubles as fuse panel. Its compact case has the approximate size of a cigarette box and is completely moulded in - resistant to water, weather and vibrations.

It is easily mounted by two M5 screws. The m-Unit V.2 is the 'electrical heart' of the motorbike. Features of the new version V.2 - reduced standby current of 0.35 mA (equivalent to 0.00035 A) if alarm system off, and 0.48 mA (equivalent to 0.00048 A) if alarm system on - for longer battery life - alarm system triggered by position-independent MEMS 3D gravity sensor.

The Ducati SportClassic was a bike ahead of its time—a machine that married retro café-style looks with thoroughly modern performance. It’s now in hot demand on the secondhand market, and a favorite with custom builders looking for a rock-solid platform with ‘good bones.’ This SportClassic is the work of Revival Cycles, and it’s more heavily modified than most. The owner took it to the Texas workshop after the voltage regulator set the seat and wiring harness on fire. “It came to us a bit battered and bruised,” says Revival’s founder Alan Stulberg. “The owner is 6’5″ and loved the bike, but wished it would fit his tall frame a bit better—and of course, quit catching fire!” Revival started work on a new subframe and seat, and began designing a stretched-out aluminum tank to match. “It was all downhill from there,” says Alan. Revival then CNC-cut an aluminum plate to allow them to use the factory fuel pump inside the new custom tank, minus the low-hanging sump of the stock tank.

Triumph T100 SS by Untitled. London’s Untitled Motorcycles have made a name for themselves with raw and functional customs designed to blast around congested city streets. So this board track-inspired Triumph T100 SS is something of a departure—but a intriguing one at that. There’s an explanation for the sudden swerve of direction. A few months ago Andy Carol, the bike’s owner, went on a boys’ weekend to the Veterama Oldtimer Autojumble in Mannheim, Germany. While walking up and down the many aisles, he came across this Triumph—half-finished and part-assembled. “I’d been getting more interested in board track racing and was beginning to harbor a desire to create something reminiscent of that era, but also useable and a bit unusual,” he recalls. The frame had been modified and adapted from an original T100 SS ‘bitza’ by a chap called Carl Frith from Bath, in the west of England. Andy struck a deal and returned the Triumph to Untitled Motorcycles’ premises in Camden, London.

Shimobros' Photostream. Helivehicle Emergency Helicopter by Jung Hyun Min. Helivehicle Emergency Helicopter has been designed to help patients to receive emergency medical service immediately. Based on many recent studies, many city fails to save lives during serious emergency cases such as stroke, heart failure, or gastrointestinal bleeding, and many more. We believe, in the future, all-weather STOL PAVs would be our emergency transportation system, it transports patients to their destination at the speed of 3-4 times faster than airlines or cars. This project aims to give patients immediate emergency medical attention in time, this futuristic chopper can be driven on land or fly over difficult terrain. Designer : Jung Hyun Min. Honda CX500. The Honda CX500 has always lacked the cachet of the earlier CB550 Four. Which is ironic, because the CB550 was little more than a downsized CB750; Honda was losing ground in the technological stakes to the other Japanese makers.

So Honda gave the new CX500 a water-cooled V-twin, shaft drive and tubeless tires—all quite revolutionary concepts in the late 70s. But the awkward, angular styling did not match the inspired engineering. Max, the French owner of this CX500, decided to fix that. According to Wrenchmonkee Per, “Max rode his old CX500 from France to Copenhagen last October. The Wrenchmonkees didn’t have a specific plan for transforming this CX500, but when they stripped the bike down, they saw what could be achieved.

Texas-based Revival Cycles are on a roll at the moment, with a brace of custom Moto Guzzis heading to The One Moto Show in Austin. Both bikes have been heavily modified; as Revival’s Alan Stulberg says, they “began as very different machines and sort of met in the middle.” The first machine is a 1975 850T (left), chosen because it was the only Guzzi fitted with a twin-leading shoe rear drum brake.

To match it, Revival fitted the front drum from a racing Yamaha TZ … and forks from a 2007 Suzuki GSX-R. “This illogical combination would be ludicrous to most,” agrees Stulberg, “but utterly simple in its intention—to combine the best of the day this bike was made with some of the finest technology of modern times.” Revival also gusseted the frame, removed the lower frame rail, gusseted the rear swingarm and added an Öhlins rear shock. They also cut open the rear drum to match the front drum’s ventilation. The integrated tank, seat and tail unit is handmade, and leads the styling cues.
