Awesome bike! What kind of engine have you got running in there? Also, how fast does it go? The yellow color of the exterior is absolutely stunning. Have you brought this to a motorcycle show? I’m sure it’ll be a big hit when people see how well-made it is!

Hi Erik,
The engine was a Sputhe all alloy XR1260 engine running 44mm mikunis.
When Performance Bikes tested at Bruntinthorpe they reckoned the top speed would be around 155mph.We were running special cams that gave us more torque than horsepwer at the time..
We never had the bike at shows, no..it was too busy getting worked on in the garage. The yellow was done locally, always a favorite colour of mine :)
