Roaring Australian Motorbikes

The PGM V8 Bike Has a Monstrous V8 Engine

— May 14, 2015 — Autos
A small team of Australian motorbiking enthusiasts is bidding to keep the country's great tradition of petrolhead motorbike love intact with the PGM V8, a motorcycle that is designed to tear up the road and take no prisoners.

The PGM V8 motorbike is a monster on the road. This bike is equipped with a mean 1996cc 90-degree V8 engine capable of spinning out 12,800 revs per minute. This allows it to produce an incredibly impressive output of 334 horsepower or 249 kilowatts at its countershaft sprocket, while offering up 158 pounds-feet of torque.

Now this motorbike isn't the first Australian V8 engine-equipped creation, as those have been around for years now. However while other bikes have used existing engines, the PGM team painstakingly created a proprietary engine for the purpose, making this an even more impressive feat.
Trend Themes
1. Proprietary Engine Creation - Creating proprietary engines for motorbikes presents disruptive innovation opportunities for manufacturers to increase performance and stand out in the market.
2. High-powered Motorbikes - The rise of high-powered motorbikes with monstrous engines opens up opportunities for businesses to cater to petrolhead enthusiasts seeking thrilling and adrenaline-pumping rides.
3. Custom Motorbike Design - The demand for custom-designed motorbikes like the PGM V8 showcases the opportunity for customization businesses to offer unique and personalized rides to motorbike enthusiasts.
Industry Implications
1. Motorcycle Manufacturing - Motorcycle manufacturers can capitalize on the trend of creating proprietary engines by developing innovative engines that deliver superior performance and efficiency.
2. Automotive Accessories - The growing popularity of high-powered motorbikes creates a market opportunity for automotive accessory companies to develop specialized parts and components to enhance performance and customization.
3. Customization Services - The demand for custom-designed motorbikes presents an opportunity for customization businesses to offer tailored services and create unique, one-of-a-kind rides for motorbike enthusiasts.
