The Honda Chopper looks like a cross between a Tron Lightcycle and a space ship from Star Wars. It has been designed by Pete Norris to blend modern looks with cutting edge tech that would propel the rider along like a bat out of hell.
After reading up on the design it’s of no surprise that Pete is a fan of Star Wars, in particular the Phantom Menace which is where he drew inspiration from.
Under the uber-cool skin lays not one, but three engines. One biofuel engine does most of the hard work whilst two smaller electric engines on each of the wheels provide a bit of extra grunt. As with a traditional chopper the suspension stretches out in front of the bike with the rider positioned three-quarters of the way back. Subtle lighting follows the lines of the Honda Chopper; this makes it look sic-fi whereas the grey paneling makes it look clinical and menacing.
