Top Shelf: BMW Apollo Streamliner Motorcycle


There are definitely levels to transportation. I have always loved bikes, but could never muster up the courage to actually buy or ride one myself. I think my love for them comes from an admiration for the engineering that goes into making such awesome machines. We spend a lot of time going through content to post and every now and then something comes across the desk that just blows minds away. Just so happens that this post comes courtesy of our good friends over at BMW, which makes it even more dope to us.

Created by industrial designer Mehmet Doruk Erdem, this futuristic BMW Apollo Streamliner concept was designed for…what else…speed. Erdem fashioned the bike as a personal project, crafted for speed record attempts in Salt Lake. While the overall aesthetic of the motorcycle is no doubt futuristic and something you’d see in a sci-fi movie, Mehmet did award the Apollo with some traditional BMW styling. 

Along with the stylish brown saddle, the bike boasts an exposed engine and is highlighted by the large, sloping front section that makes it ultra aerodynamic.
