Put away that $1.7 Million check you were holding the Bugatti Veyron and spent the $1.688 Miliion you’ll save by buying a Suzuki Hayabusa on something else. The much fabled Bugatti Veyron, which we are a fan of here at BallerRide, was beat out by the Suzuki Hayabusa in a 1/4 mile and 0-186mph test as well as in the horsepower-to-kilogram ratio. While the Suzuki Hayabusa might not have the lines or class of the Bugatti Veyron, it is a fast and impressive bike that will save you big bucks if your just looking for speed. Actual times and ranking of the Bugatti Veyron and Suzuki Hayabusa after the jump. Read the rest of this entry »

Protect your dome in style with a luxury motorcycle helmet from Les Atelier Ruby’s flagship Pavillon line. Designed for comfort, the jet helmets are manufactured using carbon fiber to keep them light, and multiple air channels keep allow for ventilation to keep your head from getting overheated. The best part about the pavilion helmet is that it offers superior protection despite its lack of a chin strap.
A variety of colors and patterns are available, as you’ll see pictured in the image gallery below. The French helmet maker also has a line of crazily colored helmets from Parisian graffiti artist Honet. Although we don’t like to hate, Honet’s helmets aren’t very street, and we’d likely stick to the solid colors in the Pavilion line.

And less than one year after the bike debuted in August, 2007 the bike is up for grabs at an asking price of $110,000, with the proceeds going to charity. If you don’t mind staring down at the Pope while you ride, this bike offers the opportunity to add a rare, albeit expensive OCC custom chopper to your collection.

Bike? Car? No, it’s a Proxima. This concept blends two vehicle types better than we’ve seen since we started covering the BallerRide space. From the front this concept looks like a car, from the rear a bike, either way we’d like to see the Proxima take off down the freeway. Alvino Design has come up with this sleek aegonomic design that includes two tandum seats inside. If you’re in the market for a bike/car hybrid, than the Proxima is for you.

France-based Enzyme Design has released mock-up images of its new I.Care concept bike, which is beyond a doubt the most futuristic motorcycle design we’ve seen. According to the company, a six-cylinder Honda engine would power the two-wheeled sculptural machine, which looks purpose-built for a sci-fi flick. Keep your fingers crossed that the I.Care will make it into production. Enzyme Design’s last concept motorcycle, the Atomo V1000 actually made it to the streets. Although, the Atomo’s design is far less ambitious. Estimated pricing on the I.Care hasn’t surfaced, but the company boasts that the bike will be “up market.” Follow the jump for two more images.
