Native Transport?
Brazil is in the media at this time for all the wrong reasons in relation to the destruction of the Amazon forest by burning, but there remains a serious drought in the region and much lightening activity something missed by the media reporting?
The natives of the region have adopted the motorbike as the best means to access the forest for its natural resources of crops and other fruits! Trucks carry a variety of products and not just timber from A to B through some extremely difficult terrain even at the best of times.
Brazil is a very modern nation with a successful arms industry and its aviation outlet Embraer, now selling commercial aircraft world-wide! But the ability to adopt some Indian style transport is clever something that has not as yet come to the fore in many other developing countries?

The Motorbike. Two.
Today?
The role of the motorbike is far from over today, as it was yesterday? It is now one of the fastest machines on the surface, with top quality racing at all levels and its just that we do not see enough of the sport on TV?
Motorbikes have been adapted for Paramedic work in Israel and the U.S.A., these are the first responders to various situations? Nearly every police and paramilitary force in the world uses the motorbike for traffic and escorting duties because of their flexibility.
Italy, Japan, Brazil, India, Australia and Russia still make some serious top quality machines for civil and military use. Some nations have copied British and U.S. designs and successfully adapted them
Today's machines are either top end or mass produced and in many nations in the developing world, such as India they are used for every imaginable use? China has moved on to advanced technology in the first mass produced electric battery powered machines, in fact there is no end now to the use and viability of this machine and its other various components, such as the scooter, scrambler and motorcycle.
Even the military are still using motorbikes in the communications role, despite the Internet and many other advanced forms of communications, we may not but others are.

The Motorbike. One.
A passion on two wheels!
The Motorbike has an interesting history and has been around over 100 years, its first hey day was perhaps World War-I (1914-18), when it was devised for dispatch riding and went on twenty-five years later to be an invaluable tool in military intelligence.
The concept was to motorise the bicycle and many original ideas are actually being re-invented today as we move into battery power over that of petrol. Racing bikes did develop better motorbikes between 1919-1939, but there was a plethora of makers, who took up their tooling after 1945.
Apart from the famous names of today Britain was one of the worlds leading producers and much of the 1950's technology went out to India, while the United States is most famous for the Harley. The motorbike of rockers and Hells Angel's chapters, or the road riders of many great motion movies.
