Bandit9 it's a crew that customizes engines, but for me they are artists. Artists who are part of my group of "little totems". They are visionaries, and like all visionaries they push an idea to the limit to chart a direction: their works are all designed with an organic look that mixes practical and artistic aesthetics. And this motorcycle development (it's not a concept: it sells!) is no exception.
Supermarine, this is its name, is based on Bandit9's previous custom creations. It is perhaps the most ambitious creation with an "organic" tone developed to date.
Supermarine, a race on two wheels
The shape of the bike looks impressive, but what makes the hairs on my arm stand up is the reflectivity of the paint. It looks like the top part of a fish. A race, to be precise. which should emit rays. The headlights are where you expect your eyes to be - the final look is seriously badass.
Aside from the organic look, however, these little monsters do well. The outfitting of Supermarine motorcycles starts with a 900 cc three-cylinder engine. They give maximum power at 7500 rpm, and top speed is nearly 200 kilometers per hour (120 mph). Iron hand in velvet glove, to use an old saying. When you upgrade to the Carbon Class, you get the 1200cc engine, which gives 103 horsepower at 9.000 rpm and a top speed of which exceeds 210 kilometers per hour (130 mph.). Bandit9 describes him as “a bare-knuckle boxer in English dress”.
Supermarine, as mentioned, is Bandit9's most ambitious and "organic" project to date. Starting from a Triumph frame, as many as 400 custom components were individually designed to put the entire bike together. The bike is available to order, although it is not known what the official price of each unit is.
Given the exquisitely exotic appearance, expect a large sum. Bandit9 is accepting orders right now and deliveries of the organic medium (land, not underwater) will begin in December 2021.
