Just introduced in Verona during the last Motor Bike Expo, here is the official photoshoot provided to Inazuma Cafe by Jody Basso and friends. Obviously in HD... Read the beautiful details of this bike in the rest of the post.
The bike frame has been modified in the tail and new brackets have been built to mount the new custom gas tank, seat and rear fender. The tank comes from a Yamaha Tenerè 600. It has been shortened and reshaped in the lower part where there used to be fasteners for the front fairing . The electronic injection pump has been relocated outside, where the ABS control unit was located. The driver seat and the passenger one (removable) are entirely custom handmade. The luggage rack is handmade and works as a support for the passenger seat. The custom fenders are aluminum made: cut and finished by hand. The controls on the new Renthal handlebar have been completely renovated. The bike frame and the wheels have been powder coated. The engine was painted in house with Foliatec products suitable for high temperatures. The steel tank has been custom painted to maintain the metal finish. The instruments have been simplified and replaced. The front brake is from a BMW 1200GS. The Mivv exhaust system has been custom modified and changes made are reversible. The new battery with same performance has got reduced weight and size . The tires are Metzeler Karoo 3. The headlight is from a 1958 Same Super 68 tractor and houses the instruments’ lights. An auxiliary yellow beam headlight was also fitted: it’s an original vintage Lucas mounted on a custom built bracket. The oil cooler has been moved downwords behind the front wheel in order to keep clean the look of the engine. The gussets on the fork legs hide their excessive length due to telelever system, which is sufficiently hidden as well. A very difficult bike to modify, and such a good result for this young team of builders.
