Congratulations: it’s quadruplets

You’d think AutoAnything is all hopped up on prenatal vitamins at the rate we’re birthing new products. Like rabbits in spring, we squeezed out a new litter of motorcycle covers to keep your chopper looking as clean as the day you stole it from Zed. Take a gander:

 

Covercraft Custom Pack Lite Harley Davidson Motorcycle Covers

Comes in enough colors for every day of the week.

Covercraft Custom-Fit Harley Davidson Motorcycle Covers 

This cover's bringing flannel back.

Covercraft Form-Fit Indoor Motorcycle Covers 

Attention family and friends: It is now safe to enter the garage--the motorcycle is protected.

Covercraft Pack Lite Weathershield HP Motorcycle Covers 

It's OK that you don't know how to drive a motorcycle--covering it up with a Covercraft cover looks just as cool.

Rocket vs. Crotch Rocket vs. Golf Ball?

Richard Hammond narrates and races his Honda Firebird “motorbike” against a massive rocket-shaped firework and a golfer… a completely useless comparison, but still fun to watch.

Ken Block Hits the Salt Flats

His 566 horsepower STi is pretty insane. With 590 ft-lbs of torque, his Impreza can sprint to 60MPH in 3 seconds flat. But that torque can be used for other things as well, like towing people on plastic trash cans…

Ken Block and his crew are at it again, but this time they are out setting some land speed records at the Bonneville Salt Flats using some less-than-traditional methods of transportation; trashcans, big wheels and plastic snow-sled from Wal-Mart. Good stuff, check out the mischief after the jump…

Epic E1pc Eletric Bike Ready for TTXGP Competition

There have been a few electric motorcycle concepts that were produced over the last few years and one of them was produced into a production unit, although sales haven’t met the expected level of demand.  But the timing was tough for these companies as times have gotten tough for a lot of people.  Never the less, electric motorcycles a offer specific advantages over their fossil-fueled equivalents, namely torque-on-demand,  zero emissions and the complete lack of excruciatingly-hot exhaust pipes. It’s was only a matter of time until electric-bikes made their way into professional racing competitions.  Hit the jump to learn more about these ultra-fast machines and the future of Zero Emissions racing.

Must’ve been an important message….

The Most Powerful Rocket …errrr… Bike in the World – AutoAnything

Some mates from down under decided that motorcycles just weren’t fast enough. Maybe the power-to-weight ratio of their Yamaha FJ 1200 just wasn’t good enough for them. Maybe they’d never ridden the Viper-Engine-Powered Dodge Tomahawk. No matter what the reason, they knew that had to do something crazy. So in true Speed-Freak fashion, they (somehow) managed to source a Rolls Royce turbo jet engine that cranks out a massive 3,800 horsepower and strapped it to the back of the bike. This bike now holds the world record for being the most powerful bike ever built… speed tests are yet to be performed, probably because the bike would end up leaving the ground behind and take flight. If a bike can fly, is it still considered a bike? Probably want to talk to the world records keepers about that before attempting anything…
