11 Jan, 2015 Post a Comment

Marcus Carlsson, for longtime readers together with those who direct maintain skilful retentiveness is non novel to these enterprises. Years agone he caught my attending together with all the spider web alongside its F1 Tracker, a tracker-based Ducati that was inspired past times the Formula 1 of the '70s.
Now he has returned to locomote on this type of cycle alongside a Honda CRF rattling minimal which owns goose egg to a greater extent than than what you lot request to become fast.
Accepting my invitation Marcus tells the flush of this project, which for sure volition beak 1 time again the web.

Here is the flush behind the CRF Tracker Concept past times Marcus Moto Design.

The bike, Honda CRF450 2006 that I bought from a friend nigh our household unit of measurement summerhouse exterior a pocket-size town were I grew up. I had the cycle at that spot for a few years all criterion for some fun wood together with gravel route riding .
For a long fourth dimension I direct maintain had the vision on the ultimate street tracker. Ultimate inwards my heed is 1 alongside minimal bodywork, centralized weight, lightweight carbon fibre together with a concept motorbike experience to it. So hold out I got roughly to it together with used my Honda CRF, a modern aluminium mx frame, powerful iv stroke 450 thumper engine together with calorie-free weight base. Then I added the HRC concept past times Marcus Moto Design thought to it.

So inwards my dream heed it could live on Tokyo Motor Show every bit the HRC direct maintain on the Street Tracker. Or the HRC gift to Marc Marquez for him to hitting the Barcelona streets later on he wins the Superprestigio on the same bike.
If HRC built the CRF Tracker Concept was my vision when I started nearly 2,5 years ago. I movement slow on my cycle builds unfortunately.
Every alteration is done past times myself. Even paint. Welding together with modifying of FMF exhaust, welding aluminium sub frame, modelling together with shaping bodywork mold base of operations inwards foam, manufacturing gas tank, belly pan together with bodywork inwards carbon fibre, (handlayed past times me), lowering front end forks, designing parts inwards the CAD programme NX together with and hence 3D printing them (sprocket cover, axle cover, calorie-free bracket etc). The focus on the bodywork has been to larn inwards every bit minimal every bit possible together with at the same fourth dimension amend the treatment of the cycle alongside for event majority centralized gas tank together with exhaust. You tin flaming truly await direct downwardly on the valve comprehend through a hole every bit goose egg is lighter than a hole.

The frame together with swing arm is stock but everything else is either modified or merely removed. The aluminium sub frame is the forcefulness carrier for the passenger together with the mounting slice for the carbon fibre gas tank. On locomote past times of it all is the sparse sleek carbon fibre torso locomote where every surface of it has been questioned if it is request or non to cut down actual weight together with present truthful lightweight appearance. Seats are for touring bikes! This is a barely street legal race cycle alongside battery powered lights. Built for brusque stints on your favorite curvy hamlet roads exterior Stockholm. The licence plate is a Japanese 1 bought many years agone inwards a Tokyo moped market. It volition live replaced alongside a Swedish 1 to cut down the traffic cops interests for the bike. They volition in all probability direct maintain some opinions on the cycle anyway. The LED telephone that makes the front end calorie-free has a 3D printed bracket developed on figurer past times me. The battery is hidden underneath the lower yoke. The covers on front end axle are 3D printed together with the comprehend for parent brake caliper is inwards aluminium. Both added to cut down the fussy together with a fight disturbing areas at that spot inwards typical concept cycle manor.

The engine is modified alongside one-off FMF exhaust organization alongside shortened silencer tucked inwards underneath the engine but alongside header length together with MegaBomb intact for best performance. It breaths through a UNI pod foam filter.
Improved performance alongside Boyesen Factory Racing Clutch Cover together with Boyesen Supercooler H2O heart cover, Robust together with fashionable cherry silicone Samco hoses matched to modified larger aluminium aftermarket radiators, Goldentyre xix inch Flat rails tyres together with for the parent brake a Fasst Co brake confine kit.
Unique together with fight weird bikes is what gets me going every bit likewise many custom cycle await the same nowadays.
I direct maintain used FMF, Boyesen, Samco, Goldentyre, Fasst co for this build.
