We've all seen, or even owned, dirt motorcycles, motocrossers, enduro motorcycles, trail bikes, etc.... but if you're serious about going off-road, here's the ultimate all terrain vehicle; the Hyanide motorcycle !
The design was entered in the Michelin Challenge Design 2006 by Oliver Keller, a 24 year old native from Nurnberg, Germany and Tilmann Schootz, 26, from Frankfurt, Germany.
The concept motorcycle used a bendable rubber track instead of rubber tires. This gives the vehicle a maximum traction, the way a tank does. The "motorcycle" is steered by hands and feet.
The vehicle can use either a standard fuel based engine, or fuel cells ! The current model uses a 500 cc ATV engine.
Now, wouldn't this motorcycle do great in the sand dunes of the Dakar race ??? It looks like something out of Star Wars....
