We have seen some stunning examples of the marriage of automobiles and high fashion. The KTM 250 bike got a touch of luxury with a Louis Vuitton seat, and the limited-edition Vespa 946 Christian Dior is an impressive specimen of the same. Following suit is French motorcycle manufacturer DAB Motors who have recently partnered with Burberry to give the world a uber-cool motorcycle, dubbed the Concept E-RS Burberry Edition. These limited-edition pieces curated by creative director Ricardo Tisci are DAB Motors’ first-ever street-legal concept motorcycle.
They are incredibly environmentally friendly due to an electric power source, leaving behind a lot less waste and less carbon print than mass-manufactured motorbikes. Where does Burberry feature in this eco-friendly method of transport? Concept-E RS Burberry Edition features hints of traditional Burberry design and is available in two unique Burberry liveries, a Metallic Grey or Midnight Blue.
In addition to the exterior, the Concept-E RS also includes a custom seat that is redesigned using the Burberry monogram pattern on genuine black leather. Bespoke iconography on the body, a hand-stitched TB monogram saddle, and customizable handlebars complete the look of this bike that also flaunts a Beringer braking system and fully adjustable Öhlins suspensions. The Concept-E RS Burberry Edition can go up to 68 miles (109 km) and manage a top speed of 65 mph (105 kph). The classic bike is limited to only 20 chassis and is available through an authorized dealer for $34,000.
