ÔÇ£Rejean Neron's Safety Sphere is a protective suit which inflates to a man-sized sphere, completely enveloping the rider in the event of a crash. It inflates in five hundredths of a second, cushioning the rider for any impact (except perhaps those into giant spikes) and consists of a loose fitting coverall suit comprised of two layers of fabric.

Neron explains: "The outer layer is made up of a highly resistant parachute type material. The inner layer is made up of a thin, moderately elastic synthetic material. In a collision situation, the passengers are thrown from the motorcycle, the cord connecting them to the motorcycle seat disconnects, the electrical voltage plummets, and the electronic circuit processor inside the belt buckle housing of each occupant connects the 9 volt battery to an electric igniter in the back housing of their respective suits." This triggers the firing of an explosive canister of propellant called nitrocellulose.
Neron is a motorcycling idealist who believes bikes could play a massive role in alleviating congestion in 21st century cities, if only riders' fear of crashing's consequences could be reduced to those of the prang-happy car driver. He's been working on the Safety Sphere for many years, through 'countless' iterations and is now looking for backing to bring the design to productionÔÇØ

worldsbk.com: Superbike ambitions for new WTR Ten 10 Supersport team

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/oHO944JSsok" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
ÔÇ£Castrol Honda rider Jonathan Rea took pole position for the final round of the 2011 World Superbike championship at Portimao, Portugal on Saturday 15 October. Not only was it the fastest ever motorcycle lap of the circuit, but we caught it from the viewpoint of one of Jonathan's mechanics - the 2.1m (6ft10in) tall Daniel Postmus. It's a unique encounter and a real close-up and personal view of life in a World Superbike team garage. Our thanks to InFront Motorsport and Eurosport for the on-track footage and, of course, to Daniel, for all the rest.ÔÇØ

Happy Christmas!

Another take on what to do with a Moto Guzzi engine, other parts and a bit of time.

MG6347-L.jpg


Raven MotoCycles
ÔÇ£What you will find here is a totally new performance motorcycle built by hand. The design has combined Moto Guzzi, Norton, Honda and American ingenuity to create a motorcycle that is built the way motorcycles used to be made. Simple, light, fast.and stable without any needless parts hung on to cover things up. This bike is designed and built in that spirit. This is just the beginning. The next Raven is now in the works and it's a single. Thanks for the interest and the look around.ÔÇØ

Check out the site for more. Make certain you look at the gallery for more photos of the build process. For now here is more of the finished product.

OK, today's bike candy is very cool & all with the sideways guzzi engine, I dig it deeply, but come on builders! The yellow crimp-on electrical connectors & exposed wiring all willy nilly gotta go! Also, do something with the battery! Other than that, I like it.
