Named after a dominating race horse, the Deus Ex Machina Hondo Grattan Motorcycle is fittingly lean and powerful. It's based on a Ducati Scrambler, and focuses its attention on the aluminum bodywork, including a single-piece tail with integrated license plate support, a speedway-inspired headlight, and an asymmetric mudguard. Other features include a snaking dedicated exhaust, large disc brakes, and a bright yellow and sky blue paint scheme.
On the market since 1967, the Moto Guzzi V7 is a classic two-wheeler, good for everyone from beginners to experienced bikers who enjoy its pleasant ride. But should you find yourself outgrowing its straightforward looks, all you need is need is one of these Moto Guzzi V7 Motorcycle Kits to give it a whole new look. Available in four styles — Dapper, Dark Rider, Scrambler, and Legend — these kits come with everything you need to completely transform the look of your bike, changing everything from the saddle and handlebars to the tires, exhaust, and in some cases, even the shocks.
It can be said that when an incredibly unique event takes place, a full moon may have played a role. The Full Moon Concept Motorcycle from Slovenian exhaust pioneers Akrapovič may not be the result of a full moon, taking its name from the large aluminum and carbon thirty-inch wheel, but its design and look are nothing short of unique. With over eight hundred hours of work, it features an S&S Knucklehead 1,524 cc engine and two modified custom-made Akrapovič exhausts. The body and frame are made entirely of sheet metal and is an extension of the exhaust system. Designed as a continuation of their 2011 Morsus bike, the Full Moon manages to move the story forward while presenting itself as a completely different, exciting prototype machine.
The latest evolution in the classic XJR1300 series from Yamaha is upon us, and it's a sight for sore eyes. The 2015 XJR1300 takes styling influence from the custom work of builders Keino and Deus Ex Machina and features the world's largest-displacement air-cooled Inline-Four engine in production. It has a slim fuel tank design with a race-bred look, a 4-2-1 matt black exhaust, and a 4-cylinder DOHC 1,250cc air-cooled engine. The latest in this iconic line also comes in three colors, Power Blue, Matt Grey, or Midnight Black.
It's hard to go wrong with titanium and dark chrome. Toss in the Ducati brand and it's even more difficult to ignore. The Diavel Titanium is loaded with a Testastretta 11° DS engine, electronic fuel injection, and sports a steel tube trellis with a dark chrome finish. It's a sleek, impressive looking machine, and only 500 numbered bikes were produced, making it even more desirable.
If you're trying to track down the most sought after spirits of 2014, chances are you're out of luck — unless of course, you know about Caskers. A one-stop shop for liquor connoisseurs, Caskers tracked down the bottles that you and other boozehounds searched for the most in 2014 — based on millions of searches — and has them available right now, while they last.

The products you use every day, like shampoo or shave cream, should always be the best. But drugstore pickings are slim, and online shopping is risky when you don't know what you're paying for. That's why Birchbox Man lets you try before you buy. Subscribers receive a monthly box of grooming and style essentials, all tailored to match their personal profiles. Think woodsy beard oil for the urban lumberjack, or a wool knit tie for the sartorially inclined. If you like what you get, you can buy full-size versions in the Birchbox Shop, with perks like free shipping to sweeten the pot. No more letdowns, duds, or compromises: Just a sink ledge stocked with greatness.
Part superbike, part computer, all performance. The Ducati 1299 Panigale Superbike Motorcycle is the Italian manufacturer's newest flagship, and it promises to set a new benchmark for speed and handling. It's powered by a 1,285cc Superquadro engine that outputs 205 hp, which is paired with a new electronic package offering three different Riding Modes, Cornering ABS, Ducati Wheelie Control, Ducati Traction Control, and Ducati Quick Shift, the first time the latter's been offered on a street-legal bike. While you might not be able to legally use all that power on the road, it's nice to know it's there when you decide to hit the track.
When Harley-Davidson quit building the Buell 1125, the guys at Ronin Motor Works were upset — and they decided to do something about it. The Ronin 47 Motorcycle is the result. Based on the 1125, this striking conversion ditches the original's Showa forks for a cast aluminum alloy linkage fork, with easy fine-tuning available via a Penske mono-shock. There's also a radiator front-and-center to help cool down the notoriously hot Rotax-designed motor, alongside stacked low and high beam headlights. Other notable changes include a new exhaust system, new controls, new gauges, a new seat, a new LED taillight, and a new RFID-enabled key for push-button starting. Named after the Japanese folktale The 47 Ronin, only 47 uniquely samurai-named bikes will be available.
With a design that resembles a Transformer's head from straight on, the Kawasaki Ninja H2R Motorcycle leaves little doubt as to its sinister intentions. At its heart is an all-new, 998cc inline four cylinder engine that's paired with a hyper-efficient supercharger to generate an insane 300hp. The company's Aerospace division crafted the jet fighter-like lines of the carbon fiber bodywork, and a host of advanced systems like KTRC traction control, KEBC engine braking control, and KLCM launch control help keep you on the road. Or should we say track — since the authorities have deemed the Ninja H2R too extreme for the street, you'll only be riding this one on race day.
With a rich history in motorcycle racing, Ducati has plenty of lightning fast motor bikes to choose from. But some of those may be a bit uncomfortable or unforgiving in your pothole-filled city streets. That's why we're excited about the release of the new 2015 Ducati Scrambler. It's been 40 years since they halted production on their 250cc Scrambler, so it couldn't have come any sooner. It's now equipped with a new 803cc L-Twin cyclinder, 75 HP, desmodromic air cooled engine — ready to take you anywhere.
We knew this Italian garage had created something special when we saw the moniker of their latest build. Named after the Italian word for wild beast, minimal design and timeless appearance make up the Sartorie Meccaniche Belva Motorcycle. This cafe racer is formed from a rare Buell x1 Lighting, featuring a customizing the rear end, a more aggressive riding position up front, and a sleek Norton fiberglass endurance tank replacing the bulky stock tank/fuel pump combo of the original. Proving that even a bike that's over a decade old can be born again into something fierce.
Anyone can go buy a stock bike off a dealer's lot, but when you're riding this Triumph Bonneville Pegaso, you can be confident you won't see anyone else riding one — because it's truly one of a kind. With this custom bike, Tamarit Spanish Motorcycles put their own spin on a 2006 Triumph, aiming to create an off-roader that's ready for anything. That includes manufacturing some of their own parts, like the bash plate, chain guard, and foot pegs. And when you add in the rugged Renthal handle bars, front fender, knobby tires, exhaust, and classic scrambler seat, it's more than capable off tackling unchartered paths.
It's not every day you get a chance to own the very first model of a new motorcycle, but that's exactly what you'll find in the Midual Type 1 Motorcycle. Inspired by classic European cars and bikes from the '30s and '50s, this great-looking ride is powered by 1036 cc flat-twin engine pumping out 106hp that's paired with a 6-speed transmission with a multi-plate clutch and an electric starter. Other features include a double-wall aluminum alloy monocoque that acts as the fuel tank and body, a cantilever rear suspension, Brembo brakes, 17-inch wheels, and the ability to draw attention anywhere you ride it.
It's true that the Bandit9 Bishop Motorcycle is listed as being a Honda SuperSport, but one look at this limited edition custom will tell you there's little left of its prior identity. Powered by a 90cc-125cc engine, the Bishop features a high-grade aluminum unibody, either walnut, oak, or teak burl panels, a custom exhaust, muffler, and suspension, a charcoal grey suede seat, an electric starter, and LED brake lights encased in quartz glass. If you like what you see, you'd best hurry — only nine are being built.
In order to appropriately follow up its Bonneville speed-record-setting predecessor, the Confederate X132 Hellcat Speedster needed to not only run great, but look amazing as well. So Confederate enlisted the aid of a former Ducati designer to help with the details — and the results are incredible. Outfitted with carbon fiber and billet aluminum, adjustable suspension, dual-caliper brakes, 18-inch carbon fiber wheels, and a leather tractor seat, this bike sports a fuel-injected V-Twin that produces 121 horsepower and 140 pound-feet of torque pushed through a five-speed transmission. And with only 65 units being released, this rare beauty will remain a coveted ride.
Yes, you read that correctly. Bacon lovers now have their own iron horse to lust after in the Hormel Black Label Bacon-Fueled Motorcycle. Based on the rare Track T800 CDI motorcycle from Dutch company E.V.A Products, this specialized ride features an 800cc three-cylinder diesel engine that's been modified to run on 100% biodiesel, which is itself made from bacon grease. Along with the sweet, bacon-smelling exhaust emissions, this one-of-a-kind bike also features a completely new lowered suspension, a modified frame, a custom gas tank, and, of course, a pigskin saddle. See it in action here.
Most bikes see a design refresh once every few years, so when a company announces a model sporting its first new design in decades, it's worth taking notice. The 2015 Indian Scout Motorcycle is the first all-new Scout in over 70 years, updating the classic "rigid triangle" design with a modern cast aluminum frame that helps to make it the lightest bike in its class. Power comes from a liquid-cooled, 1133cc V-twin engine cranking out 100 hp, which is coupled with a six-speed overdrive transmission and standard ABS. Prepare to hop into the solo tan leather bucket seat later this year.
Most survival packs include plenty of stuff to help you ride out the worst of times — except for transportation. Fortunately, the Motoped Survival Bike has you covered. Powered by a 4-stroke engine, the bike gets excellent gas mileage, and uses downhill mountain bike parts mounted to a custom frame and swing arm for rugged reliability. As for the survival part? Well, it also comes outfitted with a crossbow, one-gallon gas pack, a survival shovel, a tomahawk, a harpoon, a fixed blade saw, a lighting system, carabiners and climbing rope, a flashlight, a multifunction knife/light, two multi-tools, a neck knife, and a bike mount for that most versatile of tools, your smartphone.
Calling it a motorcycle is a little disingenuous, since it's really a roadster — but with only three wheels, the Polaris Slingshot Motorcycle is actually a bit of both. Powered by a 2.4L engine, this two-seat open-air vehicle sits just inches off the ground, with a 5-speed manual transmission and lightweight polymer body panels to create an exhilarating motoring experience. You might have to get your motorcycle license to drive it — depending on local laws, — but the first time you round a corner at speed, it'll be well worth the effort.
Building on the success of their racing-focused Atom, the chaps at Ariel have turned their attention to the two-wheel market. The Ariel Ace Motorcycle is the stunning result. Sporting a skeletal frame that recalls the Atom but is machined entirely from an aluminum alloy billet, this sporty bike is powered by a 1237cc, water-cooled Honda engine good for over 170hp, a top speed of 165mph and a 0-60 time of just 3.4 seconds. Beyond the specs, though, the Ace is incredibly customizable, sporting your choice of seats, handlebars, exhausts, brakes, tank sizes and styles, and front ends, with the promise that your entire cycle will be built by a single technician who signs his work when he's done.
