Coolest Bikes Ever

Here is a list of what we think are the coolest bikes in human history. Let us know what you think.

Vincent Black Shadow

Hunter S. Thompson probably summed the Black Shadow up the best- "the backlash from the kick-starter almost broke my leg," "the vibration almost fused my wrist bones," and "boiling oil from the breather pipes turned my right foot completely black," but you have to love the "genuinely hellish bike." From 1948 to the late 1960s, this was the fastest production bike ever.

BMW R32

Before they made cars, they made motorcycles. Before they made motorcycles, they made planes in WWI, but that is neither here nor there. The BMW R32 was the company's first bike, released in 1923, and spelled the prototype of the BMW brand- boxer-twin with shaft-drive.

Yamaha R7

The R7 was a homologation special of only 500 produced to compete in the Superbike World Championship. To qualify, it only produced 106 bhp out of the box, but came with additional fuel injectors that boost power to 135 bhp when activated. These horses powered the R7 to a top speed of 174 mph.

MTT Y2K

Did you know that jet helicopter engines are road safe? MTT found out and started putting them into their Y2K model. The result is 320 bhp at 52,000(!) RPM and 227 mph. Let's add this badboy for guts.
