Mansory, the tuners who can turn absolutely any regular vehicle in something you either love or hate, want to take the two-wheel-world by storm. They've revealed today a custom bike, called Zapico, which you can actually call motorized carbon fiber. Developed in collaboration with bike customizer Thomas M. George, the Mansory Zapico, apart from a few metal ornaments, is made entirely out of carbon fiber. The not very fortunate called Zapico bike has the front mask, bug spoiler, seat module, primary shield, silencer applications, fuel tank, frame, fork, wheel rims, and airbox made from CFRP (carbon fiber for you and me). The only things made out of metal on the Mansory Zapico are the engine, exhaust and a few aluminum applications on the fuel tank, spoiler and rear fender.
The power of the Mansory Zapico bike comes from S&S T 124 2,080 cc V2 spring-loaded vibration engine which sends 160 hp at 5,200 rpm to the rear wheel via a 5-speed transmission. With a weight of just 340 kg, and that with a full tank, the Mansory Zapico is able to get from 0 to the magic 100 km/h (62 mph) mark in just 3.3 seconds. Now that's a really fast carbon fiber you might say.
The price of the Mansory Zapico has not been announced, but do you really want to know it?
