Intermot 2010

There were many wonderous things at this year's Intermot Motorcycle Show, but few will capture your imagination as much as this home-made Ducati V8.

The eSpire bicycle features “hybrid drive,” meaning that it can be pedaled ebike-style with electric assist, or driven with a throttle, like an electric motorcycle.

The 2011 Gixxer600 and Gixxer750 aren't revolutionary redesigns, but there's enough interesting and incremental changes to make them worthwhile upgrades.

Behold, motorcycle fans, the new king of the castle. Ripping out a terrifying 210 horsepower and weighing just 198kg full of fuel and fluids, the 2011 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R leap-frogs to the front of the power and power-to-weight charts.

At Intermot 2010 we’ve managed to get a closer look at the XO2 Urban Transformer foldable scooters we first covered last year.

German brand Horex is resurrected with a new super-naked featuring a 1218cc 15-degree supercharged V6 engine. That's right, forced induction is back on the motorcycle menu!

If we thought last year's RSV4 was racetrack-focused, the new Arpilia RSV4 Factory APRC Special Edition makes it look like a courier hack.

The new K 1600 GT and K 1600 GTL touring motorcycles are being offered with the company's 6-cylinder in-line engine.

A new "variotronic" double lens helmet visor can be electronically switched from light to dark by pressing a button and it can even be switched to automatic mode, where the lens is controlled directly by an integrated photo cell.
