Fiat 600 Multipla
The Fiat 600 Multipla was the result of WWII austerity in Europe and the need for very cheap motorcars that could carry more than 2 people, as well as luggage.
Tucano Urbano El Met Helmet
Tucano Urbano are a quiet company that comes out with well designed and quite appealing gear, this helmet is a good example of their work and is the sort of lid you could wear on anything from a 50cc Vespa to a Harley Cafe Racer and not look at all out of place.
Moto Guzzi Mark 1 Le Mans by Matt Machine
This Moto Guzzi Mark 1 Le Mans was featured on Silodrome last year, after discovering that the bike was now up for sale on eBay (via Pipeburn), we decided to feature it again for all those who might have missed it the first time, and for all those who might want to sell the Prius and buy it.
Monowheel Tank
Okay so in the grand scheme of things this invention seems a little mad. It’s also incredibly cool and if it actually worked it’d…
Benelli Leoncino
The Benelli Leoncino is a masterclass in mid-20th century Italian motorcycle design, it has a timeless aesthetic appeal that wouldn’t look at all out of place in a modern art museum.

Ducati 900 GTS by Nick Huber
The Ducati 900 GTS is one of those motorcycles that sits very close to the top of most motorcycle obsessed gentleman’s wish lists.
The Pink Pantera
I want to be mad at her for painting a De Tomaso Pantera pink, but for some reason I just can’t hold a grudge.
1951 Alfa Romeo Tipo 159 Alfetta
There’s nothing like removing some bodywork to show you the real genius behind automotive design. This 1951 Alfa Romeo Tipo 159 Alfetta is one of the most successful racing cars ever made
Ducati 900TT by Rad Ducati
This bike started life as a 1992 Ducati 900TT, already a serious bike in it’s own right. Interestingly, the first thing Rad Ducati did was add a modified Yamaha TZ 250 GP solo seat and modified Yamaha TZ 250 GP front fairings. Tell this to any hardcore Ducatiphile and they’ll be frothing at the mouth but the end result is superb.
