Bike Garage - The Bol D’Or Series

The Endurance means is the novel tendency that they are taking to a greater extent than customizer, a contestation which I get got oftentimes had occasion to confirm.

This MV Brutale 800 is an illustration of this tendency ..some shots I had shown them inwards a post service around fourth dimension ago.

Walt’s affection for Italian bikes isn’t express to Ducatis. MV Agusta’s novel 3-cylinder engine as well as nimble trellis chassis is the ideal platform to laid upwards this astonishingly low-cal performer we’re calling the “Bol d’Or.”

“In my experience, saving weight wherever you lot tin ever results inwards a meliorate performing motorcycle. The weight reduction programme for the Bol d’Or started amongst the role of high tech composite to supersede the plastic OEM bodywork. Using a especially formulated epoxy Kevlar matrix for the newly styled xx liter gas tank reduced the weight significantly to 3.5 lb. All the bodywork combined (including fairing stay) weighs entirely 8.5 lb. Additional weight reduction was achieved yesteryear our aluminum subframe, the lightweight high performing exhaust system, as well as my bring upwards sets machined from 7075-T651 aerospace bird aluminum. 

A ram air organization was created to larn the best out of the highly tuned 3-cylinder engine. The diameter of the air intakes was increased as well as they were tucked into the front end of the fairing. To larn the near out of these modifications as well as to attain meliorate torque as well as horsepower, the ECU was flashed amongst a fully tunable surgical procedure program.

The sense of riding such a lightweight motorbike amongst its razor abrupt treatment as well as the engine surgical procedure of the legendary MV Agusta technology, engulfed yesteryear a audio like to that of a Formula One auto is hard to position into words. It needs to live experienced.”                 — Walt Siegl
