Concept recap and key elements



































































A few of my collated concept ideas with the general them of utilising an adaption of the Cafe Racer featherbed frame.
With a focus on:

-Using the tubular frame as both a practical structure as well as conveying safety
-Hiding the exhaust, tucking it under the seat
-Large underseat storage space
-Exposed engine or partially braced over
-Flowing organic lines combined with the triangular steel frame
-Naked, skeleton like bottom half of the bike
-Large suspension and keeping current common associations with the motorbike


I would like to further look into the idea of balance on the bike both stationary and whilst riding,
-Making the bike a more 'portable social platform' where you can chill out comfortably whilst being stationary, through development of the centre stand and perhaps a flat are where you can rest objects; drink, food etc.


ALSO further investigation into the incorporation of a Hydrogen Hybrid bike:

what things need to be added/taken away to accommodate for this?
is it as easy as simply just switching in the hydrogen supply to my current designs?
