My Top Picks

Like any “good” motorbike journalist, I’ll provide you with my prime picks, which suggests I’ll drool and allow you to know what it is over. In the spirit of Deus Ex Machina, my picks are primarily based on what the bikes make me really feel and don’t have anything to do with ROI or financially good decision-making. So, just about according to how all motorcyclists make shopping for selections.

At the highest of my listing is the Deus Fuoristrada, which is a Deus Workshop Milano undertaking bike primarily based on the Fantic Motor Caballero 500cc. I really like the Deus model, and to me, this bike represents what it is all about: paying homage to the machines that moved the needle, as it is a tribute to the Fantic Caballero 50cc mannequin from the 70s.

The graphics, heat-tape-wrapped SC Project exhaust, and knobbies make me wish to go on an journey. I’m bought. At the time of writing, the bid is €4,800, and it is anticipated to go for between €10,000 – €12,000.

Tell me it has three cylinders, and it is a two-stroke, and I’m in search of my pockets. But present me this Kawasaki 500 March III, and I’m going to a financial institution supervisor. The bike was in-built small numbers by Bucci Racing, for racing in 70s competitions. But it hasn’t been left sitting round accumulating mud, as a substitute, it was maintained by the Route Classiche workshop.

Again, it is a bike I checked out, and with out seeing anything, screamed “Yes!”. It’s a completely customized KTM constructed for flat monitoring with Deus graphics. What else do we have to know?

Rare Gemballa Mirage GT Delivered To Private Jet Might Be The Epitome Of Cool

Gemballa is known for creating outrageously powerful and expensive upgrade kits for supercars. One of its most famous creations is the Porsche Carrera GT-based Mirage GT.

The Carrera GT, Porsche’s halo car in the 2000s, was beloved by car enthusiasts worldwide. It was equipped with a naturally-aspirated 5.7-liter V10 engine that produced 603 horsepower and 435 pound-feet (590 Newton-meters) of torque.

Unlike many supercars of its time, the Carrera GT featured a special six-speed manual transmission, sending power to the rear wheels through a twin-plate ceramic dry-clutch.

With only 1,270 units ever made, the Carrera GT is already a rare commodity. However, some people desire something even more special. That’s where the Gemballa Mirage GT comes in.

The Gemballa Mirage GT is a modified version of the Carrera GT with a widebody kit, a straight-piped exhaust system, an engine tune that boosts power to 661 hp and torque to 465 lb-ft (630 Nm), and a carbon fiber interior makeover. It’s an attention-grabbing supercar with unique customization.

According to Gemballa’s website, only 25 Carrera GTs were converted to Mirage GTs. The blue Mirage GT featured in the video is exceptionally unique because it retains the original Porsche steering wheel, albeit covered in different leather. The other 24 units have a Gemballa-designed steering wheel.

This particular Mirage GT, finished in Gentian Blue Metallic with a Cuoio Leather interior, belongs to the private Lee collection, based in Perth, Western Australia. The car was sent to London and delivered directly to the tarmac of London Stansted airport, where it awaited the arrival of a private jet.

The Gemballa Mirage GT and an Aston Martin V12 Speedster were then driven back to London, causing a spectacle in the capital city. Check out the embedded video to see the stunning German supercar in action.
