The NM4 is obviously the Akira bike every anime nerd/biker has been waiting for. The Ninja i think looks more like something from Bubblegum Crisis, one of the knight sabers bikes then a mobile suit design.
If Honda has the Akira bike, and Kawasaki is going for BGC, then i can only hope Yamaha will take it upon themselves to bring us the Garland, complete with robot mode... would buy so HARD

It doesn't look like a gundam at all.

Now the dude from Guyver on the other hand . . .

Anyone know if these will ever be available for the public, or are they destined to be concept models just for display. Cause' I would love to own either of those bikes. They look so badass. As was the music from the commercial.

A street version of the H2R is coming.

The H2R is the most batshit insane motorcycle every created. Period. It is beyond description.

Oh puh-leez. If you think that is the most insane motorcycle ever made then you know nothing about motorcycles.

Turbo Busas and that thing with a Viper engine don't count.

If 300 HP, slick tires, and goddamn spoilers doesn't make your dangly bits tingly, then you must be mainlining meth every single day, or something.
