Dubbed the "Gladiator Bike", this is concept art for a product that doesn't exist. This is this stuff of fantasy. Mine, at least.
Designed by artist Jaewan Jeong, the Gladiator Bike exists in 22nd century, with a widening gap between rich and poor. Racers battle it out on WipEout or F-Zero style tracks.
The whole thing is what the Star Wars: Episode I pod race should have looked like. That is, if it didn't suck.
The bike was inspired by Roman chariots, and racing has become a violent sport. Which sounds like the coolest motorcycle game I've never played.
