I welcome you, to the Excalibur site, a special horse of battles, created for the amusement of all people what wish to see it, and mine.

This is the statement that you'll see when you visit Daniel Echeverria's website, "Excalibur, The Bike of Power".

Daniel's bike is dressed up to resemble a knight's charger. He takes it out to bike shows, the last one being Daytona Beek Week, 2005. He says that he wanted to turn his '79 Kawasaki 1000 into something unique, but didn't have any good ideas, until he came up with this one.

"The truth is that when I bought the motorbike, the poor thing was closer to the scrap yard than to be able to run, activity which it hadn't done for ages", says Daniel. "I thought it was strong enough to bear anything so I started to look for a topic to personalize it. After thinking about different ideas I ended up with King Arthur legend which was a very popular topic."

Well, at least the topic does lend itself to some pretty cool ideas.

For example, the headlight is in the shape of a dragon's head, and the dragon's mouth will open up to shoot out a burst of flame.

The sheet metal is dressed up to resember the armor plating on a charger.

And, the handlebars are in the shape of swords; that's the probably the coolest part!

Props to Blogebrity for the "heads-up".
