1. and 1A. Yes, your eyes are not deceiving you. Simon Whitlock has created a 48-cylinder, 4200cc motorcycle by bolting a bunch of engine parts together. It took him three years to complete, and it needs a 75cc motor to start the engine. And yes, the bike hits the scales at one ton.

2. For some reason, this noble vehicle was designed after the Star Trek ship Enterprise.

3. The dirt bikes in this army are equipped to pack double, so the rider on the rear part of the saddle can shoot his bazooka. Hopefully, the rider in front ducks at the right time.

4. This extremely tall bike was built from a tractor … and in the process ruined a perfectly good tractor.

5. Dodge built this bike as a project with a V-10 motor. There are no plans for it to be released.

6. The German army built this bike to skid safely through the snow.

7. Surely you’ve heard of a riding mower. How about a bike mower?

8. With some engineering savvy, this rider built an actual bike motorhome.

9. In 1931, somebody thought a one-wheeled bike would be the hot ticket.

10. And I thought the three-wheeler was dead!

11. Ah yes, a touring special of sorts.
