So, the British firm Caterham, which is involved in F1 and makes some sick fast Lotus super Seven-based cars is now setting up a new division for motorcycles.
This is what they came up with.

I'm not kidding.

They will sell many tens.

Looks like a mad chainsaw or lawnmower on steroids.

Rokon copy.

Does it have 2wd?

My first thought was cool - I can finally get a newer BW200 but sweet jesus - a 750cc single?

Rare shot of a Caterham on track after Q1...close battle with Marussia for dead last.

I think Rokon already did this about 40+ years ago.

 

[RetroGrouch]

Does it have ABS and traction control?

 

[XenoVibe]

Looks like a Grom. I hope they do go somewhere with this and it doesn't ruin them like Lotus did themselves.

Read up some more. They apparently got Chris hunter from Bike Exif for consultation-big mistake.

check out this crap:

Brake is from a mountain bike? they got the number two part right. This is what happens when hipsters get too much credit.

Looks like crap.

Not even a good mtb brake either.
