Where we're going, we don't need roads.

It's got a 4.7-liter V8 engine with 470 horsepower, which is crazy. Somebody's actually riding it, which is even crazier.

Lazareth's all-electric E-Wazuma quad will have more torque than a Porsche Boxster.

French quad-bike constructor Lazareth has outdone itself, packing a Maserati V8 engine into a sport bike to make for a death wish on wheels.

The Buell chassis lends itself well to the use of a supercharger because the ai

Volkswagen's recent foray into motorcycle-inspired cars with its GX-3 concept had us prowling the web for other hybrid creations, and we discovered this all-asphalt monster quad, the creation of French car and bike tuner Ludovic Lazareth. The Lazereth "Quadrazuma" is powered by a Yamaha GTS 1000 4-cylinder engine, producing 120 hp at 12,000 rpm. Considering its curb weight of 837 pounds, performance should be, well, inspiring.
