    Ciao Boys.
    Some months ago I started to work on a XTZ750.
    My goal was to create an off road bike starting from there.
    First I visit some guys who race padak and other Rally with the xtz and I check for weakness in the bike.
    Then I start to work.

    I show you some photo

    new oil tank:

    Great job! The bike looks awesome! .....but that pipe is begging for the accompanying sound file. Would love to hear it run...must sound good, eh?

    I lack adequate words , but this art bike proves what I thought about the redesign that BMW(rotax) did on the f 800 ,standing the cylinders up 27 * to clear the 21" tire.

    If you wanna top it of, WR-YZ swingarm is the same lenght as the ST will fit with a little modification on the front, will cut another 4 kilograms...and will lower the center of gravity (YZ linkage):freaky
