Unique-ONES - Tarso Marques, a former Formula One driver, has brought his wildest dreams to life with the creation of a motorcycle powered by an aircraft engine. This unconventional vehicle, known as the TMC Dumont, sports an eye-catching design featuring two massive 36-inch hubless wheels and a centrally positioned engine reminiscent of something out of a sci-fi movie.

The name 'TMC Dumont' is a nod to its creator, with 'TMC' standing for 'Tarso Marques Concept', and 'Dumont' paying homage to Alberto Santos Dumont, a pioneering Brazilian inventor and aviator. But beyond its aesthetic appeal, this motorcycle is a marvel of engineering, boasting a Rolls-Royce Continental V6 engine from the 1960s capable of generating a staggering 300 horsepower – a power usually reserved for Cessna plane models.

Firing up the engine unleashes a roar that commands attention, but the TMC Dumont's unique design presents some challenges for practical use. With its exceptionally low ground clearance, navigating anything but flat roads becomes a risky endeavor. Even minor bumps or potholes could spell disaster for this unconventional ride. Moreover, the oversized front tires and the rear tires positioned dangerously close to the rider's back further complicate matters, sacrificing comfort for style.
Describing his creation as 'the most expressive event of customisation in the world', Marques says the vehicle is the culmination of years of planning. (Picture from: DailyMail) |
Despite its impracticalities, there's no denying the TMC Dumont's allure. Its futuristic appearance earned it the prestigious "Best in Show" title at the 77th Daytona Bike Week in March 2018, showcasing its undeniable charisma and innovation.

As enthusiasts eagerly await its potential release for sale, one thing is certain – the TMC Dumont has left an indelible mark on the world of motorcycle customization, ushering in a new era of avant-garde design and engineering prowess.
With its audacious design and formidable power, the TMC Dumont is more than just a motorcycle – it's a testament to human creativity and ingenuity, pushing the boundaries of what's possible on two wheels. As we look to the future, one can't help but wonder what other groundbreaking innovations lie ahead in the world of motorcycling. But for now, let's marvel at the TMC Dumont and the bold vision it represents.
