The Most Interesting Design Motorcycles!

[@KowboyUSA]

Like a WWI rotary aircraft engine but mounted inside a motorcycle wheel. Cool stuff.

[@KowboyUSA]

@M Bacon Plus there's the insane gyroscopic forces that must be calculated and overcome. Definitely not surprising the design was quickly made obsolete.

[@KowboyUSA]

@M Bacon Suspect the bike would want to continue steering on the same plane as the engine is rotating on.

[@pmaint1]

How do you get the wheel on the ground without it stalling or killing yourself? How would you stop it?

[@KowboyUSA]

@@pmaint1 Lots of serious problems with that one!

[@rogerdodrill4733]

​@@pmaint1 maybe kill it, put on ground & push start it. Kill it with brakes to park

Actually the LE Velocette was extensively use by the British police... Very functional..single seat with radio transmitter/receiver behind the driver.. What we called a Bobby bike..for local towns

[@wiscgaloot]

It's a lovely little bike too.

[@marcelorondan2525]

The majestic was a great looking machine, never seen or heard of them before but I'll be doing some research on them, thanks for the videos...I always enjoy them!😉👍

Some Bikes may be good for Jules Verne Fantasy Movie - i like the Scooter , look like a old Aeroplane , very ehstetic

[@nor0845]

Interesting vid. Modern bikes are sadly bereft of innovation these days. I always felt sorry for the likes of Royce Creacey (champion of FFW bikes) but any attempt at progress was killed off by authorities (racing and otherwise) and a surprisingly conservative public. Thank you for posting.

[@desertblbuesman]

I have freaking LOVED all the weird and wonderful bikes you show us, and all the great and not so great, but the idea put into iron, and am grateful to you. But that rotary engined front wheel leaky horror just turns my stomach in its bizarre departure from reality. , im grateful for the reminder.

[@irnhmmr]

Well said

[@jetlag4free621]

Forever Motolove! Love my own yamaha. Always putting up the good stuff like Delta Parole and others when I am working on her. Moto is life

[@crudboy12]

The first bike is doesn't have a rotary engine, it has a RADIAL engine, which is even cooler in my book.

[@Fikry-Elfassakh]

Very good .

[@redtobertshateshandles]

Seeing that CZ is an awesome company, I'm going to give Bohmerland the benefit of the doubt . Dad always said when he was a kid there were the rich and the poor. I guess the rich bought a Majestic. Imme, stinginess at its very best, half a motorcycle. I wonder if the Meg was designed to oil the front tyre?

[@yusafieroman3724]

Ckckckck jiiiaannn apik tenan paklek👍👍

[@BRI33NOR]

I'd rode a Neracar almost identical to the one shown,many years ago now, in Lincolnshire , England. Incredibly stable steering.

[@siriosstar4789]

these older bike have style . the newer super bikes are designed by computer generated images focused on aerodynamics . they all look similar and BOOORING. The older model cars and bikes were designed via imagination and as such are a pure art form .

[@lutzrodger7600]

Some of These bikes,you can visit in Germany Museum Near Chemnitz in Augustusburg, the megola and many more,,vety interesting to see

[@kennethjanczak4900]

Absolutly amasing.... Thanks for taking the time to make the video and share it......

[@divechart4269]

I read that with the Megola, the engine rotated in the opposite direction of the front wheel. I know the video appears to show it rotating in the same direction but is it a trick of the camera?

[@santiirigoyen3334]

Good video👍The 1912 Militaire is a very rare and unusual motorcycle.

[@robertwoodliff2536]

Thank you for putting this great collection together.

[@joerobinson4453]

VERY Cool 😎

[@dixiefallas7799]

As oil drips on the front tyre! First bike. Thanks.

[@rogertycholiz2218]

[@cristianpopescu78]

Megola is almost impossible to drive😅My girlfriend says right now ,look those are like our Radiator ,plus two weels🤣

[@frankmarkovcijr5459]

The Velux at Ellie was a dismal failure 4-valve page to design a bike with a hand gear shift that dated from the thirties for the company that invented the foot gear shift was abysmal liquid-cooled Flathead made no power at all and only the Army and the police would buy them because the government told them to feel affectionate stuck to their Core Business of making 500cc sporting motorcycles

[@Syntaxter]

Der einzige Grund Internet geil. Sternkolben am Motorrad. Besorge mir Literatur. Abgefahren (davon hätte mir jemand erzählt. Hätte gesagt SPINNER) Früher HIGHEND cool

[@Telecolor-in3cl]

I know the Czechs where advanced in terms of technics, but dint' know they where so advanced. The German pressed steel frame motorcycles had the look.

[@fidelcatsro6948]

last video german 100cc was the most stingiest looking bike...even my cat has 4 swingarms and suspension

[@gustavmeyrink_2.0]

And yet it is considered a design classic with a home in many motorbike and design museums. Previously the engineer behind the Imme R100 designed the starter motor for the world's first operative jet fighter.

[@bobs3354]

@@gustavmeyrink_2.0 I’ve always considered the IMME a very forward-thinking design. I’ve never owned one but had an R100 in my shop for a while. If I recall correctly (it’s been a few years) both wheels were the same size and interchangeable. It could also carry a spare wheel. The single-sided fork and swingarm made for easy wheel changes. Lots of other unique features on this bike.

[@Rudyikotyk]

На це можна дивитись вічно😉👍 Nice!

[@massimocallegari4898]

Ciao! You know the Moto Guzzi Zigolo?

🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🇮🇳🇮🇳😎😎😎😎 o my God, I would really love to ride all the those bike , I wish if I was born in that country with alots off bikes . ❤❤❤❤

i see no reason the megola or neracar can't be modernized and equipped with electric motors. as much as i love classic motorcycle designs, some of these early bikes were decades ahead of their time.

[@JK-tq5cu]

Why defile these wonderful mechanic marvels with electric?

@@JK-tq5cu modernized is the key word. the neracar and megola appear to have superior ergonomics and rider protection from road spray as compared to modern road burners. both are museum pieces and basically unusable. i'm not talking about bastardizing museum pieces but designing modern motorcycles utilizing old but ahead of their time ideas.

[@Lone_wolf--br7fi]

What were y'alls favorite? I liked the Imme R100 the most

[@CrusaderSports250]

Please leave the sub titles up for a bit longer, almost all proved impossible to finish reading, this was a real shame as the bikes featured were very interesting, have seen pictures of some Neracars with what looked almost like an armchair as a seat, talk about comfort !!.

[@johncunningham4820]

Imme R-100 . Single-sided Fork and Swingarm . Great Idea . Single-sided Crankshaft Bearing , maybe not so much . I bet reliability was Horrible . All these Beautiful Antiques are Wonderful though . Some Very Forward thinking ideas from 80 -100 years ago .

[@stevenboelke6661]

Full dimensions for a ner-a-car can be found online. One could make a reasonable facsimile of a Majestic by putting similar bodywork on a reproduced one. I'd love to make a semi modern replica of an Imme R100 and a majestic... Something to do during retirement.

[@peroduanippa]

I like the Salisbury scooter and the Megola.

missed one the moto rumi scooter

[@whalesong999]

I was a mechanic and service manager with a shop in northern Westchester Co., N.Y. and we had a customer bring in a Ner-a-Car for me to evaluate for restoration. Turned out it had no spark and I suspected the flywheel needed to be pulled and servicing done with it and the internals. After days of trying, couldn't get the flywheel off so asked them to come get the bike. If we hadn't been a major brand dealer, perhaps would have pulled the power unit for a better approach. The friction drive was a very interesting feature and simply applied.

[@ginnybourne6374]

Whilst riding around the south of France looking for twisties a couple of years ago we happened on a local bike show. There was a Majestic there. Excellent bike with lots of innovative stuff, glad to see a few included here :-)

[@joostplaylist6218]

A special feature of the Velocette LE: It had shaft drive! (like a BMW).

[@2012listo]

Radial, not rotary

[@2012listo]

@Alfred Wedmore I see. Thank you for setting that straight. I used to design cars and should know this. Not an engineer, though. Just a visionary. Riddle- if burning any fuel in any closed chamber makes vacuum, then what is pushing the piston? In 30 years the only one to get it right was a housewife suffering clarity.

[@2012listo]

@Alfred Wedmore wrong. Cupping. Egg trick. Putting out a candle with a coaster. All make vacuum. But I like your answer. Pieces of it are very close. Try again. After doing these 3 experiments, of course. Holler back if you need any clarification about the experiments. You will love the answer, I promise!
