Go through the product catalogue on Lazareth's website and you'll not find a single conventional-looking vehicle. No sire, Ludovic Lazareth doesn't believe in conventional and old school traditions that command bikes should have two wheels. Folks at Lazareth gave the LM 410 four wheels, a sophisticated mechanism so it can lean and plonked an engine from a Yamaha R1 for the grunt.

So, the four-wheel lean machine can stand upright on its own. But even with four wheels, it doesn't look very cluttered and quite frankly looks more practical than super wide car tyres on a bike (something like the ones we saw on the escape vehicle that broke off from Batman's Tumbler).
-
Only 10 of these will be available for purchase and by the looks of it, the LM 410 would attract customers with flare like Bruce Wayne (or at least, pockets as deep as him). It is available for EUR 100,000 (nearly Rs 77.39 lakh). If you think this price is big, here's a little shocker – the Kawasaki Ninja H2R retails for Rs 72 lakh in India – tch tch import duties.

The limited-number bike (ahem, four-wheel vehicle) will be available in France where it is road legal but if Mr Wayne is reading this, we don't reckon he'll have trouble obtaining it if he likes. Perhaps a custom paint job would be in order for him though.
-
But if you think this is madcap, you're in for a treat. The LM 410 is actually a much dialed down version of Lazareth's creativity. He's built something much more complex and evil before this. Turn to the next slide for the LM 847 which makes the LM 410 look practical enough to do grocery runs on.

While the LM 410 is powered by an R1 engine, the previous model featured a massive 470 bhp Maserati V8 car engine and caused quite a scene at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. Why wouldn't it? Look at it.
