The manliest motorbikes ever made

Motorcycles at their most basic are already pretty manly. So when rogue lunatics decide to soup them up with increased power and/or jet engines, it's like putting laser gun goggles on Batman. To prove the theory, we've found six bikes that kick more ass than Jet Li with his hands tied behind his back.


Linky.

Why is this parked bike hooked to a burning motorcycle?  Least they could have done is removed the block of wood supporting it...

What we\'re witnessing is the sad, lonely crowing of that last, doomed cock.

Perhaps to show how powerful the thrust of the engine was... Just guessing.

And why? Because the embedded systems driving this motorcycle are developed in a field where 99%, if not 100% of the people are men.

You make that sound like there's something wrong with that?

Some hobbies will always be more interesting to one gender than the other simply because of human nature.

... and it's good to have a mechanically handy best friend. Nothing like a bike day out the garage and getting your hands dirty!
