Renovatio Motorbike Makes Me Drool

Renovatio Motorbike

Picture%201.png

The Renovatio is yet another amazing bike/art masterpiece/mechanical wonder from the engineering wizards at Confederate. Like their Wraiths and Hellcats, this handmade steel, aluminum, titanium and carbon beast looks straight from a Katsuhiro Otomo movie —but even more badass and with a heart to match: a V-twin 1686cc water-cooled engine at a 90ยบ angle. Can't believe it will be real one day? Then check the video of their other bikes and the Renovatio's stunning specs after the jump.

Guy from Orlando Exchanges Surface-to-Air Missile Launcher for Reeboks

Guy from Orlando Exchanges Surface-to-Air Missile Launcher for Reeboks

no-questions-asked.jpgAn anonymous guy exchanged a 4-foot-long surface-to-air missile launcher for size-3 Reebok sneakers. It happened at the Kicks for Guns 2007 program, in which Orlando citizens can turn in any weapon in exchange for sneakers or $50 in cash, no questions asked. Check Orlando Police Sgt. Barbara Jones holding the actual piece of equipment after the jump.

The guy said that he found the launcher in a shed last week. The Orlando Sentinel reported that the guy didn't know what to do with it:

I didn't know what to do with it, so I brought it here. I took it to three dumps to try to get rid of it and they told me to get lost.
