WR 750 F "Il Ghepardo"
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: ![]() new upper gasoline tank: ![]() new frame parts to make it stronger ![]() radiator protection ![]() muffler ecc ![]() lower tank ![]() rear frame ![]() and .... il GHEPARDO ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Isn't it nice?

Nice.
This qualifies for "Some Assembly Required" so I'm going to move it there.

not built by commitee
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.
