The Lazareth LM 847 V8 Motorcycle, In Motion

Back in March, we brought to you these pictures of the Lazareth LM 847, the “motorcycle” on four wheels, powered by a 4.7 liter Maserati V8. At the time, all we had to show you were pictures of the wild machine. But of course, when something that wild is created you want to see it move.

It took Lazareth some time, but the French company was excited to finally send us the video below of the LM 847 in action. Granted, it’s not the most exciting motorcycle video (ok, it’s pretty boring), but at least the LM 847 sounds good and can actually move under its own power – and check out that side-to-side sway when twisting the throttle at a stop! Visit the Lazareth website to get more details.

Troy's been riding motorcycles and writing about them since 2006, getting his start at Rider Magazine. From there, he moved to Sport Rider Magazine before finally landing at Motorcycle.com in 2011. A lifelong gearhead who didn't fully immerse himself in motorcycles until his teenage years, Troy's interests have always been in technology, performance, and going fast. Naturally, racing was the perfect avenue to combine all three. Troy has been racing nearly as long as he's been riding and has competed at the AMA national level. He's also won multiple club races throughout the country, culminating in a Utah Sport Bike Association championship in 2011. He has been invited as a guest instructor for the Yamaha Champions Riding School, and when he's not out riding, he's either wrenching on bikes or watching MotoGP.
