The alu series - Versilia
The Orange Project and The Dirt-One are done, this mean two out -> two in...
While I'm finishing the TR-1 it's time to present you the second bike of the "alu series"
The Versilia
2003 Ducati 999
Yes, it has already some racing pedigree...
As I wrote before, it will be one of the two "alu series" bikes so, like The Bullet, I'm working on a full alluminium body, starting from the fairing.

Then starting build a shape for the new gas tank
I usually like to work a lot on the frame and geometry of the bike, but in this case apart from the great weight loss and the Marchesini forged magnesium wheels, I think it's pointless... but don't worry, I have quite a surprise in store for you!
Stay tuned
Stay tuned

A new (big) project
This time it may look easy, but I can assure you it is not...
Ladies and gentleman, let me introduce you
"THE BULLET"
2007 KTM 950 SM
This will be a "skinny and low" racer, so the geometry of the bike has to be changed radically
Working on the new rake angle
And building a new monoshock linkage
Also, new front end, new rims, swingarm, monoshock...
Check the progress later on.
To make things interesting, it will be one of the two "Alu Series" bikes...
I will post more details soon

I'm still here
Really sorry for the lack of posts in the past month or so, I was quite busy with a couple of photoshoot for The Orange Project and The Dirt-1, started a new (big!) project (updates soon), worked on some changes for the TR-1 (again, updates soon) and burned a lot of gas testing the Dirt-1...what a blast!
I really love that bike, it came out really, really fun to ride and I'd never stop doing it!
However the racing gas tank is very small, only 4 litres...and if you go hard on the throttle, they won't last long...
So I decided to make an emergency gas tank, just in case...
Now let's keep on riding!

Almost ready to take everything apart on this one too. Hopefully. If I don't come up with some last minute overcomplicated stupid idea ...

Ok, someone teased me with this crazy idea, so I decided to try. Please help me spread this around to make this dream come true. Re...
