Concepts: BMW Ghost Motorcycle

Marko Petrovic designed this brilliant motorcycle concept dubbed as the BMW Ghost Motorcycle, a wonderful bike which boasts a unique design, inspired by the new BMW 6 Series concept and the incredible Snowy Owl which is one of the most beautiful birds on the planet.

BMW Ghost sports bike is a concept design study of what our next generation motorcycle should look like. If you are BMW aficionado, you probably realize the resemblance between this design and BMW concept 6, because Ghost is actually inspired by the concept 6. This bike uses the long forgotten six-cylinder engine with totally new and different design approach. Brand-new 1600cc engine that’s four inches narrower than any previous production six is covered with a unique and highly complex body. The design itself came from a delicate research of one particular animal – snowy owl, a very interested bird with its distinctive look and behavior. This beautiful bird gives the life and form to the motorbike.

Delicate and highly complex pieces combined together create a stylized image of this unique animal. The primary color is snowy white with blue detailing, but it can be customized according to the user’s taste – personalization plays a great role here, user can change and customize his own motorbike.

BMW Ghost Sports Bike project was developed mainly to express strong desire to innovations and new design languages, which is why it carries the logo of BMW – one of few brands that are very open to look forward, to innovate and stand out from the others.

Concepts: 2015 Honda CB750 concept

Have you ever tried to imagine how the cafe racer of the future would look like? Well, designer Igor Chak has, and the result is quite attractive, we must reckon. His 2015 Honda CB 750 concept motorcycle is a predecessor to the 1970s-80s CB model, and boasts a very edgy design, with sharp corners, but Chak says it’s still very aerodynamic, light and simple...

The CB750 concept utilizes an advanced monocoque construction which consists of carbon fibre, aluminium and titanium. The result would be a rigid structure which is both light and incredibly strong. Located low down in the frame is the 750 cc, four cylinder engine which is fueled by liquid hydrogen. This is connected to a six speed dual-clutch transmission. The bike also features launch and traction control.
Perhaps the most interesting element of the 2015 CB750 concept is the advanced array of electronic aids and performance systems. The vehicle is fitted with electromagnetic suspension which can be altered instantaneously to suit the road conditions or rider preferences. A radar also detects any possible head-on collisions and automatically slows the bike. A 5″ OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) display screen located in to the top of the fuel tank controls the three main riding modes for the bike.
