Most of us have asked ourselves at one time or another
why we can't buy the bike we really want. As good as modern production
motorcycles are, sometimes there is simply nothing unique or optimal
enough in a package for the discerning rider/owner. The realities of
the global economy for manufacturers means some compromise in the engineering
or design of mass-produced models. As emission, safety and insurance
becomes more restrictive the choices for discriminating riders continue
to dwindle.
Consider
the following packages:
- Ducati engine/chassis hybrids (1098
Monster or SportClassic anyone?)
- Buell XB12R VRod (mild or wild street tune, what Erik
always wanted)
- Triumph Daytona 1050 (big-bore triple stuffed
in the 675 chassis)
- BMW flat twin in MotoGuzzi chassis (a
German-Italian hybrid)
- Triumph 955i/1050 engine conversion for BMW, MotoGuzzi,
other European brands
(the torque of a twin, smoothness of a triple, horsepower of a four)
- TDI diesel conversions for BMW, MotoGuzzi or other European
tourers
(the ultimate in on-road reliability and fuel economy).
If you are the owner of a European machine and
are interested in developing a unique ride, please contact us to
discuss.
