These are the first studio shots of the T-800CDI diesel motorcycle that has been designed and developed by EVA Products from the Netherlands.

The T-800CDI has been around since 2006 but its edgy styling has never looked better than on these shots.

Not only is this bike powered by an oil burning engine, but it also relies on a continuously variable transmission (CVT) system with automatic clutch.

According to its creators fuel efficiency was one of the top priorities when designing the bike. As a result they've opted for a Daimler designed 800cm3 three-cylinder engine which manages a chunky maximum torque output of 100 Nm and maximum power of 35 kW available from 850 r/min to 4,250 r/min.

The result is a bike that accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 3.75 seconds, has a top speed of 175 km/h and manages fuel economy of around 2.5 litre/100km. It also drinks bio-fuel.

The Track T-800CDI diesel motorcycle can be fitted with an aluminium luggage system, crash bars and other travel-oriented options. It is available in colour combinations of black and silver and will set you back R202 000.

Is diesel the face of motorbike future?
