My project primarily focuses on the influence of internal components on the overall aesthetic of motorcycles. Because electric motorcycles use different components than their gas powered counterparts, they have the potential to be organised differently and in doing so, look different as well. Over the past 12 weeks I have experimented with different component layouts and subsequent aesthetics, and created an electric motorcycle concept called the Akuma V.
