In the last decade, we have seen how the motorcycle technology continued to soar to greater heights and no other motorcycle has seen this at its greatest other than the MotoGP, which is considered to the top motorcycle event in the industry. During the MotoGP, we have seen a series of powerful engines, impressive electronics packages for your two-wheel wonders, gearboxes with enhanced ratios and quicker lap times, and more.

These seem quick impressive if you ask me, but if there’s an aspect in the motorcycle models that need a few more tweaks, it’s the engine layout design and the rider and suspension layouts. Of course, the Vyrus is, perhaps, the only exception to this. Vyrus is an Italian motorcycle company with its homebase in Rimini. This small motorcycle maker has the motorcycling world stunned with its hub-center steering mechanism that enables it to challenge its rival models in the massive Honda empire.

The prominent Vyrus 986 M2 also boasts of a 600cc four-cylinder engine unit and rear shock features attached to its sides. The motorcycle’s radiators are located below the engine. Quite impressive right? Totally rebellious to the standard motorcycle design.

The video footage of its performance on the Misano Circuit in Italy looks really radical. The Vyrus 986 M2 is set to launch this September with an initial tag price of $34,000. Get ready for a totally awesome motorcycle experience and design with the mean-looking Vyrus 986 M2 and its tech-genius new platform and ground-breaking design.

Have you ever wondered how the first electric motorcycle came to be? Whether you are a big motorcycle fan or simply interested in how the automobile industry produced the first electrically-charged motorcycles, grab a bucket of popcorn and enjoy Mark Neale’s movie Charge. Not only does the movie take you on a spin on board the birth of electric motorcycles, the movie is narrated by no less than the sultry voice of Ewan McGregor.

Charge tells the challenges and success of the teams that took on the death-defying challenge of making the fastest laps around the Snaefell Mountain Course which is about 37.7 mile long. To make the challenge more interesting, the teams decided to do it by producing motorcycles that were once just fantasies, thus the birth of the electric ones.

The film chronicles the tales of Michael Czysz’s MotoCzysz and Team Agni’s Cedric Lynch, who was one of the pioneer designers of the electric motorbikes used by the teams that took on the course at Snaefell Mountain. Though the movie sort of fast forwards to different events from the Snaefell Mountain Course to the TT Zero to Manxland, the movie chronicles the wonderful evolution of automobile technology that made everything possible today.

So far, Mark Neale’s Charge is only available in Canada and the U.S. and can be downloaded from the film’s website. For a different kind of ride, catch the film and get engaged in how the electric automobiles started and how technology stems from man’s imagination.
