Realize the concept of combined motor mounts for the market, not as easy as what was envisioned. Especially if you just look on paper. As evidenced Yosef Rizal ST., Courtier Trexindo. Based Honda CB100, the view is now more energetic because of the echoes abis Bennelli TNT and touch Xaxis Honda motorcycle concept.

But the Honda CB100's residents Fendrik West Kalimantan, predominant alteration Bennelli like TNT. You could see a radical change in the original chassis that combined pieces of the framework Suzuki Satria. "Framework of CB100 which dapakai just the front. That'll keep the engine position sip. Rear chassis redesign of round iron welded to the chassis center Satria, "said Rizal who admit kerjaanya rushed for follow contezt U Mild U Bikers, Jogja.

Still chasing the impression Benneli TNT, the man born in Padang, West Sumatra, try re dispensing Honda CB100 body by applying glass fibers to cover the framework. Main landing fairing radiator cover water, tank and spine. Little that distinguishes the concept Rizal with TNT in the form of shell lamps Satria F-150 is mated to the cover body.

Well, if you want to see a touch of concept motorcycle Honda CB100 Xaxis on this, can see the legs. For example forefoot designed mono arm, but remained stable due to suspension monosok supported. As shown in the bottom komstir.

Allergies Path Loss
The idea that poured motor concept Yosef Rizal was okay. Just unfortunately, the finishing touches Honda CB100 intercross Bennelli Xaxis TNT and it was still less than perfect. Many curves do not match, coarse and less sleek. "Understandably, catch events," kelit Rizal.

Not only that. Short handlebars in front of the tank which extends out to make hard drive motor. Proven ya go scrut motor failed when contezt U Mild U Bikers in Yogyakarta. Of course the reason for the short turn radius. Well, allergy dong jammed roads.

Its a 1998 GSXR 750 SRAD Street fighter, a modern interpretation of the Cafe Racer and in my opinion by definition a bike that is lighter and kicks out more power than its stock counterpart.


Specs:
1998 GSXR 750 SRAD FRAME
2001 GSXR 1000 ENGINE, HARNESS, CLOCKS, FUEL PUMP RETROFITTED IN THE 98 TANK.
