Bandit9’s EVE Odyssey V2 looks like something straight out of a sci-fi movie. With a top speed of 68 mph and fuel efficiency of 156 mpg, it is compact, efficient, handcrafted, and... Probably about as comfy whichever way you sit on it.

In the realm of custom bikes, Bandit9 Motors has carved out a distinct identity for itself since it was established in 2009. Under the direction of Daryl Villanueva, the company continues to explore the limits of motorcycle innovation. Over the years, we've enjoyed several Bandit9 pieces, including the insane supermarine motorcycle and a liquid-metal-electric scooter shaped like a backwards high heel.

Bandit9's EVE Odyssey V1 (pictured below) was an aluminum-framed suppository of a bike that created quite a stir for its avant-garde style and retro space-age aesthetic. Examples are presently housed in some of the world's most prestigious motor museums such as the Petersen Automotive Museum, the Haas Moto Museum, and the Barber Motorsports Museum.

I really really HATE that alleged bike.

Looks like some kind of elongated cockroach.

Being charitable, it's a little reminiscent of those old Aermacchi racers.
