THUNDERBIKE
Café Racer winner : Benelli SEI is a great base for any retro Café Racer and perfectly modified into a Seventies-style Café Racer . It was restored and modified by Markus Tellenbrock of Oelde / Germany with top restoration and customizing , with homemade six-in-six exhaust system and Café Racer parts in a classic Café Racer set-up .
FRED KODLIN
Best Engineering : No doubt that 16 years is a long time for building a custom bike ! But Otto Nijs not just built this wild V-8 turbo with NOX option , he also had it homologated for street use ! All handcrafted rolling chassis , twin turbo charger to reach noise emissions and the possibility to achieve 1,000 hp out of 5,736 cc were his motivation .
ZODIAC
CUSTOM CHROME EUROPE
Craziest Bike : There have been many bike show entries which could have been labeled crazy , but Tomas Pitlik ' s " TnorF ", a 1938 cc engine in a " Megola " inspired frame set-up , did certainly catch the eye of every visitor who passed it ! Frame and many parts are handcrafted . The bike was ridden onto stage by Tomas , who is well known for his motorcycle art and art motorcycles in the Czech scene .
