Custom motorcycles maintain a particular place in my coronary heart. Growing up, I at all times dreamed of constructing my very own customized creation as there are many customized bike reveals the place I’m from; builds that showcase masterful restorations, otherworldly customized builds, and head-turning resto mods. And to this present day, hope to have the ability to obtain this objective within the not-too-distant future.
While these builds are by all means cool as hell, 99 % of them are based mostly on current machines. The Archangel from Ransom Motorcycles appears to occupy that one %—standing as a one-of-a-kind creation that has one hundred pc its personal id.
I imply, simply have a look at it.
The Ransom Archangel is nothing wanting a rolling murals
It will get a chunky 300-section rear tire
The Archangel is draped in bespoke aluminum bodywork
The Ransom Archangel is nothing wanting a feast for the eyes; taking a look at it, one can discover it troublesome to know the place to begin. It’s a type of issues whereby the extra you have a look at it, the extra you’re mesmerized.
From the nostril to the tail, the Archangel is crafted out of hand-formed aluminum and chromoly metal components. Up entrance, the fender is sharp and angular and conceals an LED headlight revealed solely when the nostril slides down to show it.
The similar pointy, but flowy strains comply with to the edges of the bike, doubling as radiator shrouds. Meanwhile, the tank, tail, and swingarm appear to be a monocoque construction, additionally following the identical streamlined design language we see on the entrance of the bike. It’s quite a bit to absorb.
No matter what angle you have a look at this bike from, there’ll at all times be one thing that’ll catch your eye. From the 300-section rear tire to its extraordinarily raked-out inverted fork, and wait… what? Is that an inline-four engine?
Indeed, the Archangel is powered by a four-banger pumping out a whopping 185 ponies with a 13,000 rpm redline. It’s presumably sourced from a Japanese sportbike, though Ransom doesn’t disclose what motor it’s rocking. Apparently, W. Robert Ransom, the gifted craftsman behind Ransom Motorcycles, was surrounded by Japanese sportbikes rising up, therefore his affinity for these high-revving motors.
The Archangel appears wild from any angle
Ransom retains the engine shrouded in anonymity to protect the bike’s distinctive id
He chooses to shroud the precise engines in anonymity to retain the Archangel’s individuality, as folks are inclined to affiliate customized builds with the manufacturers of their engines. But Ransom ascertains that the Archangel is one hundred pc a Ransom motorbike—full with its personal VIN. Plus, when was the final time you noticed a customized cruiser powered by an inline-four?
So the subsequent logical query is clearly “Can I buy this sick custom bike and how much will it cost me?” Apparently, if you happen to’re affected person sufficient and have the dough for it, you may.
Ransom will take a non-refundable $2,000 deposit for this bike, and can allow you to chat immediately with the builders to spec it in keeping with your needs. From there, they’ll require a a lot heftier remuneration, with some accounts stating that the completed product can set you again near the value of a supercar.
Not many customized cruisers are powered by an inline-four superbike engine
At the top of the day, I’m certain any motorbike fanatic would love such a radical piece of their assortment. I imply, simply have a look at it.

Riding with another person is nice, however there is a particular sort of feeling you’ll be able to solely get using by your self. Just you and your bike; possibly together with your ideas, possibly with some music, or possibly with nothing however the candy sounds of your machine. The most vital level is, it is your name, and nobody else’s.
That is, in fact, till your coronary heart leaps into your throat as you out of the blue encounter a shock animal out on the highway. If you are fortunate, you’ll be able to swerve to keep away from it. If you are not so fortunate, you’ll be able to die, or else be critically injured.
As for me, I’ve very vivid recollections of a deer staring me down within the in a single day hours throughout one 3am ride to work in the dark. It felt like his eyes had been boring holes into my again as I waited for the sunshine to show inexperienced, however a minimum of he was behind me and never in entrance of me.
In any case, eventualities like this are one of many recurring nightmares for riders. Here in 2024, although, one cattle breeder is at the moment on trial for involuntary manslaughter in France after a motorcyclist’s loss of life in 2022.
Map of Clarbec, France.
One of the person’s cattle was reportedly out on a highway in Clarbec, France (which is positioned within the division of Calvados, within the area of Normandy) at round 10:15 p.m. when he encountered the surprising animal. He was on his method again from teaching an area soccer crew when he and the creature each met an unlucky finish.
The noise was loud, and the breeder’s son heard it and got here working. At first, all he noticed was the cattle mendacity within the highway. Only after alerting his father to assist him transfer the physique did they see the motorbike, after which the unconscious rider shortly thereafter. As it turned out, he was in cardiac arrest, and was declared useless simply an hour and a half after the crash occurred.
Now The Breeder Is On Trial For Manslaughter, But How?
There are at the moment two arguments in play on both facet of this unhappy story. The authorized crew for the household of the rider who died within the crash alleges that the cow’s whereabouts had been the breeder’s duty. If fences weren’t maintained to maintain the animal correctly corralled, they argue, that is negligence.
Investigation of the fence discovered that it wasn’t out of practice, so the subsequent argument is that fireworks had been set off within the space that evening. When really frightened, the defendant’s lawyer mentioned, a bovine animal might have been so startled that they jumped the roughly five-foot-high fence.
It’s not clear what sort of cattle was concerned on this case, and we do not have a helpful chart for you of how excessive various kinds of cattle can leap. However, what we will inform you is that some British cattle have been recognized to leap 5 and even six toes excessive underneath numerous circumstances. So whereas cows leaping over the moon would be the stuff of kids’s rhymes, cattle leaping in any respect is a really actual chance.
The Argument Against The Rider
On the opposite facet, the lawyer for the protection claims that it was (in fact) the rider’s fault. His pace on the time of the crash was estimated to be between 100 to 110 kilometers per hour (about 62 to 68 miles per hour) in a 90 km/h (roughly 56 mph) zone, which wasn’t unduly quick.
While he was sporting a helmet, the chin strap was discovered unfastened on the lid because it lay close to the positioning of the crash. And that is the argument the protection makes. The rider’s son, naturally, says that his father was a really cautious man who at all times wore his gloves and securely fixed his helmet.
Nothing Can Bring Them Back
Both the rider and the cow died that evening, and there isn’t any bringing both of them again. One different argument posed by the plaintiff’s legal professional right here suggests {that a} motorist had reported a wandering cow on the highway previous to the crash, and that clearly nobody introduced the errant cow again the place it belonged in time.
It’s a wierd and unhappy case, and one for which the courtroom is because of return its determination on March 5, 2024. We’ll replace this story with the result of the case as soon as it is out there. In the meantime, journey protected.
