The Hyundai Concept Motorcycle is Inspired by Musculature

— August 16, 2011 — Autos
Although it may not be apparent at first glance, the Hyundai Concept Motorcycle is inspired by the musculature of organic species. Unlike some vehicle concepts that we have seen lately that have much more of an organic form, this design imbues this inspiration into a more traditional aesthetic.

Designed by Min Seong Kim, there is a fluidity about the Hyundai Concept Motorcycle that relates it to an animalistic nature. With the addition of an upper section that seems to cage in the rider, the entire motorbike becomes intertwined, which enables steering without any kind of assistive apparatus. Therefore, the Hyundai Concept Motorcycle encourages a relaxed rather than rigid body wile on the bike, promoting a healthier position.

3. Assistive-free Steering - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Invent steering systems that do not require assistive apparatus, promoting a more natural and relaxed riding experience for various types of vehicles.
