Yacouba Galle with his potential team has designed a marvelous motorcycle that is simply unique with its Panther style aesthetics and superior built quality. After being a test pilot journalist for quite a long while, Yacouba showed interest in designing motorcycles and succeeded in creating a masterpiece. Under the name of Feline Motorcycles, he introduced his first piece of art, christened as Feline One.

Feline One is a subtle vision of future as it is built under the supervision of some of the top motorcycle experts, who created it with highest quality materials. It took almost 4 years of hard work to bring Feline to life. Carbon, titanium, aerospace aluminum and fine leather are blended in perfect quantity in crafting Feline One.

“Much more than a motorcycle, FELINE is the combination of sophistication and high technology for highly demanding customers looking for innovative and unique novelties” says Yocuba.

Feline one is powered by an 801cc, 3-cylinder, 4-stroke engine mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Tuned to churn out maximum power of 170bhp, the engine performs its emissions through a Titanium exhaust system. It performs exceptionally with its lightweight structure that notes down a dry weight of just 155kg.

It has been developed on a Titanium, carbon fiber and aerospace aluminum frame that makes it highly rigid and classy. The front 120/70 – ZR 17-inch tyre is coupled with Dual carbon swingarms equipped to 2-dampers with fiber spring, while the rear 200/50 – ZR 17-inch rear tyre functions with carbon fiber, mono damper with fiber spring. Both the tyres sport multi-spoke carbon fiber rims that boast 230mm 4-discs with 4 piston calipers at the front and 220mm disc brake at the rear.

The maker has strongly emphasized in making the aesthetics of the bike spellbinding. The ingenious front forks, hook-shaped back and HD digital dashboard are highly innovative and futuristic features. The instrument console will display odometer, speedometer, fuel gauge, tachometer, engaged gear, clock, bike angle plus warning, tyre pressures, etc. Specific rear light, luxury leather seats, carbon integrated tank and electronically controlled suspension further enhances the magnetic aura of Feline One.

“For 10 years I tested the best machines around the world and my conclusion has been to make a synthesis of two worlds: the best that I encountered and my vision of the motorbike of the future, FELINE was born!” says Yacouba.

Feline is planned for early 2016 release with a limited stock of 50 units that will start with the price tag of $280,000 (approx. Rs. 1.74 crore) making it one of the most luxurious and expensive motorcycles available on the planet.
