The conceptual Real Café Racer has been designed by You-Hao-Wu as an electric motorcycle that takes the style of sport bike in the literal sense to provide riders with freshly prepared java. The electric bike boasts a decidedly sleek construction that features the basic form of the aforementioned motorcycle, but hides a series of equipment in the body one might find in a cafe. This includes a detachable coffee grinder for preparing beans, while a dedicated tank provides water to the brewing system.
The conceptual Real Café Racer takes a somewhat tongue-in-cheek approach to motorcycle design, but also approaches it from an industrious standpoint. The motorcycle would utilize dissipated engine heat to prepare the coffee to help harness energy that would otherwise be lost.
