This Maserati Engine-Powered Motorcycle Boasts 470-Horsepower Of Pure Badassery

Who in the world would want to deconstruct a perfect Maserati? Someone thought it’d be cool to take the V8 4.7L Maserati 32-valve engine out of a Maserati and turn it into a motorcycle made out of polyester and carbon fiber.

Yup, Ludovic Lazareth is the custom builder and modifier of bikes and cars who can turn exotic cars into unthinkable new designs.

The Lazareth – LM 847 is “strictly a mechanical sculpture designed around the motorcycle’s engineering” but weighs 880 lbs. and boasts a speed of up to 470 hp.
