Would you pay premium prices for genuinely exotic design? Let’s count down. Number five, Honda W7. The frameless future from the world’s largest. Starting at number five, the Honda WN7. And yes, that Honda, the world’s largest motorcycle manufacturer, just unveiled their most radical design ever at ECMA 2025. The revolutionary feature is the frameless chassis. There is no traditional frame. The aluminum battery case serves as the structural frame. The battery housing is the structure.

And here’s what makes this exotic. A girder fork front suspension. This is a parallelogram linkage system used before telescopic forks became standard in the 1950s. Virtually no modern manufacturer uses this design. Royal Enfield brought it back. Royal Enfield is owned by India’s Aker Motors and produces over 800,000 motorcycles annually. This is a major global manufacturer, not a startup. The Flying Fleece C6 won a Red Dot Design Award 2025 in the design concept category. The design inspiration comes from Royal Enfield’s 1940s World War II paratrooper motorcycles. Teardropshaped bodywork wraps around a thinned magnesium battery case designed to look like a classic engine. Round headlamp, classic proportions, period correct styling elements. But underneath that retro aesthetic is cuttingedge technology. A Qualcomm Snapdragon processor powers a round touchscreen voice assistant integration. Over 200,000 ride mode permutations via the vehicle control unit. This is retrofuturism executed properly. Target weight is sub 100 kg which is 220 lb. That’s extremely light. Range is estimated at 80 to 120 km for city use which translates to 50 to 75 m. This is a city focused lightweight, not a highway machine. The C6 is the classic Roadster variant with 19-in wheels and that distinctive girder fork.

The design is lowlung with an extended wheelbase, floating seat design, and iconic solid disc wheels that look like a concept vehicle made production ready. Angular bodywork, a visual that stops traffic. At just 290 lbs, it’s nimble and accessible for new riders. BMW Moto requires no viability assessment. They’re one of the world’s largest motorcycle manufacturers. The C02 is available now at USA BMW dealerships with immediate delivery. Starting MSRP is approximately $86.49.

At number two, the Tarform Luna. And here’s what makes Tarform different. Every Luna is handbuilt in Brooklyn, New York, featuring body panels made from flax seed biofers and bioreesin, seats crafted from pineapple fiber and mango derived materials, and 3D printed aluminum and brass components. This is part motorcycle, part collectible art piece. Tarform is operational and delivering motorcycles since 2022. The company won an IF design award 2025 for the Luna. Founded in 2016 by Taurus Craftchuke, Tarform has received funding from 10X Capital and the European Union. Celebrity owners include DJ Diplo, Lewis Hamilton testrode one for a Wall Street Journal interview. The design blends 1960s cafe racer and scrambler aesthetics with cuttingedge sustainable materials.

Highway range drops to approximately 60 mi due to the relatively modest battery capacity. Tarform also announced the Vera, a more accessible model at $16,000 with deliveries expected early 2025. Pre-orders are open with $100 refundable deposits. However, Tarform has experienced significant delays historically. The 2018 announced bike didn’t deliver until 2022.
