I always wanted a 2 valve, air cooled 999 naked bike and just had to build one.  This thing is SOOOOO nice!
Unfortunately I have to build me another one, the $ offer one this bike was so good that I had to let it go.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

So..... Do you build these as a form of income?


Its Radical Ducati-esque ....... So I dig it [thumbsup]


Very Nice ride and Welcome to the board [beer]

I actually build Ford GT40 replica's, but with the slow economy I had to find something to top up my income.

The seat is a Radical seat from Spain.  I imported some parts from them a while ago.  I was looking at their frames, but they do not have VIN numbers and after studying the frame closer, I realized that they were very close to 749 frames.

So I decided to use a 999 frame which I modified to take the S2R swing arm and 900Sie air cooled motor.

After the reaction that I got from this build, I decided to do a small production run on these bikes and can also do builds on a customers donor bike.  I will be manufacturing my own line of parts soon and will use the modified steel 999 tanks on all my bikes.

Those pics are good motivators for me.

I used a 800 S2R frame, motor and swing arm for this bike, but can only show this picture for now.  Deleted the rest by mistake [bang]  [bang]

I'd prefer the GT 40 replica...just saying.

pm me and I'll send my address for testing  ;D

so it's basically a s2r w/ a superbike tank, radical seat, and a different exhaust?

how different is this from the 999-framed version?

cost?

thanks!
