I paraphrased this from the kneeslider.

The Hyanide and Baal design concepts were part of the Michelin Challenge Design in 2006.


heres a back shot of the Baal


Both the Hyanide and Baal designs are based on a bendable rubber track. The vehicles are steered with your hands and feet.
They were designed to accept a mass produced 500cc ATV engine.
The Baal concept was thought to be the sort of vehicle that could be used in the Paris-Dakar or Baja races.

The German designers are Tilmann Schlootz and Oliver Keller

everything I say is pure speculation and
I have no idea what I'm talking about  ._.

...just found out about these guys. their site had a few builds in progress so this was really the only one i saw worth a post. like the non-brake in front!

Germ (Brandon Casquillo) @ Mullins Chaindrive is a madman-think Jason Jessee with an English degree. I'm blown away by his fab skills. Check Max Schaff as well (another former skater). I love this video because when I originally saw it on a chopper board, the music confused so many people. ;D

I'm too lazy to list individual pics, so here are some sites:

Obviously was once a Z1 Kawasaki
Some nice details and ideas
CB750 K1 - undergoing restoration (on hold)
CB750 K2 - Wanted - More time to work on her
CB1300S - the most awesome bike i've owned yet
Z1000 1977 - Wanted - a head in rebuildable condition

Some more inspiration
This one was a Honda X4
The pic is from an old magazine - Rapid Bikes, Aussie mag, but i think the bike is Dutch
The X4 wasn't sold here and had the same engine as the original CB1300 but different frame etc.
More of a power cruiser thing
(The original CB1300 didn't make it here either)

I think he does because it probably doubles as his brakes. ;D

It doesnt have to be a "good" example of Inspiration. We could always use it as a BAD example. Like a what not to do?
