motorhead
Car and bike obsessive
A motorhead is someone passionate about motors, engines, and vehicles—especially cars and motorcycles.
The term suggests hands-on enthusiasm: motorheads typically enjoy working on engines, not just admiring them.
He's been a motorhead since he rebuilt his first carburetor at fifteen.
The word can also refer to someone who uses amphetamines, from "motor" suggesting restless energy.
