After one look at the Indian-branded "Speed Racer" motorcycle concept bike by Dan Bailey, it is easy to see how he incorporated the main characters in the Aliens
movie franchise into the aesthetics. Using the specs on the Kawasaki
Ninja as his framework, Bailey sought to design a bike that was rugged
but maintained a sleek look—a mission he has certainly accomplished. I
don't know if the Speed Racer
will ever go into production, but for a design with the balls to take
elements from three iconic franchises (maybe four if you count TRON),
the bike holds up well. But how do you sit on it?
