Title: Hyper Build Post by: 1KDS on July 20, 2010, 02:51:54 PM Found this pretty extreme HyMo build on a couple other forums and figured a few here would like it.

That would not be competitive with most Supermotos. There is a Supermoto front tire, or at least a cut rain slick, and a street bike rear tire, kind of incompatible. It's got killer front brakes, but too much for any kind of dirt. And without fenders, you are going to roost yourself with both tires all the time. Other than that, it's perfect.

Although when I asked the owner whats up with the tires, and suggested he get matching ones....he told me matching tires are overrated. [laugh] Title: Re: Hyper Build Post by: Ducatl on July 21, 2010, 08:51:14 AM Like a lot of it but I'm not a fan of the paint.
and that tank should be bare ;) Title: Re: Hyper Build Post by: ReapeR696 on July 24, 2010, 11:46:40 AM Love the direction he went with it and huge props on building a one off tank! I would of tried for a more streamlined approach instead of angular panels but to each his own. I agree with the tires, mismatching at a minimum just doesn't seem like a good direction, be it aesthetically or performance. The guy, or someone he knows, can sure weld though, beautiful job! I'm thinking boomtubes would be icing on the cake for the bike though, give it some attitude to go with the extreme and aggressive direction he took the bike. I'm betting the idle issues are connected to the the exhaust and probably not using the same airbox setup. PC can fix that but switching to the termi ECU may also be a wise consideration considering all the money he put into it, would just be a few shekels more. Love it!

Title: Re: Hyper Build Post by: Rameses on July 24, 2010, 08:57:54 PM I'm more interested in the car in the background of the first pic. I just noticed that. [evil] [evil] [evil] Title: Re: Hyper Build Post by: kopfjäger on July 24, 2010, 09:01:53 PM ^^^ That's a sweet looking Rat Rod. [evil]
