Damon Motorcycles Is Building Another Prototype, and Apparently Moving Into Mobility?

Say the name 'Damon Motorcycles' in a group of people, and chances are good you'll get one of three reactions.

From both non- and new motorcycle people, you'll probably get a "Who?". But for the obsessives, you'll probably get a confused "They're still around?" And from the more cynical-minded, you'll get something along the lines of "You mean Skully 2.0?"

We've talked about the various fits and starts of Damon Motorcycles very recently, so I won't go into any of that here. Instead, I'm here to talk about the company's recent announcement of a partnership with Italian design and prototyping firm Engines Engineering, ostensibly to develop "the HyperSport Race Program," which "will serve as a technology demonstrator for Damon." Presumably, one beyond the existing tech demonstrator that RideApart contributor Tim Stevens got to ride a few years ago.
