Street-legal aluminum bullet motorcycle gives off alien vibes

Bandit9’s EVE Odyssey V2 looks like something straight out of a sci-fi movie. With a top speed of 68 mph and fuel efficiency of 156 mpg, it is compact, efficient, handcrafted, and... Probably about as comfy whichever way you sit on it.

In the realm of custom bikes, Bandit9 Motors has carved out a distinct identity for itself since it was established in 2009. Under the direction of Daryl Villanueva, the company continues to explore the limits of motorcycle innovation. Over the years, we've enjoyed several Bandit9 pieces, including the insane supermarine motorcycle and a liquid-metal-electric scooter shaped like a backwards high heel.

Bandit9's EVE Odyssey V1 (pictured below) was an aluminum-framed suppository of a bike that created quite a stir for its avant-garde style and retro space-age aesthetic. Examples are presently housed in some of the world's most prestigious motor museums such as the Petersen Automotive Museum, the Haas Moto Museum, and the Barber Motorsports Museum.

Mine is better. My street legal desert rodent will go just about anywhere, freeway, off road, no road, 70mpg, same model been built for 24 years, unlimited parts, reliable as a sledge hammer. Bad azz enough to be used in several militaries around the world. Btw, my last HD was a 1941 ULH flathead 80". HDs are just not as fun or reliable as the desert rodent.☺

A neighbor down the street from us had one of those Ducatis back in the early 80s. Cool bike, and loud! It was blue with white accents.

Ever played Mass Effect? It looks like a Geth had a baby with a motorcycle.

The KLR650 is real nice, it was just a bit too heavy for what I need.

Butt azz ugly and another broken back ride and something a liberal gender confused transgender would ride.

It would need an upright dildo mounted on the seat to keep the rider in place if it had any hopes of being popular in San Francisco.

My first impression is it looks unsafe at any speed.
