Evil French Attack Monkey

From Hadrien in Paris...

I am a reader of your magazine and would to present you my lasest creation. A full prepared monkey bike, in the dirt track style. I let you see few pictures of the bike. 
It has an aluminium Kitaco frame, Brembo brake calipers, wheels are Cnc and were anodized in black. Swingarm is a Gcraft, fork is an Nsr takegawa with an Over stem kit. Disc brake are 220mm front and 160mm back. Engine is a 124cc, takegawa, with a 5-speed gearbox and a dry clutch (same as a Ducati). Headlight is from a monkey baja, tank seat and number plate are from a Z50R from 1985 very rare parts. 
The exhaust is a Japanese custom made line, entirely made in titanium (only 650gr!) 
I think that's it if you want more informations please ask. 
Hadrien 
PS: I am 20 and The bike was entirely made in my 5th floor Parisian apartment.

    a) because it is a toy!
    b) a very shallow depth of field (focus) on any camera makes it look even more toy town.

  6. Anyone know how the 124cc's is achieved? Through just a 'big-bore'? Or is a stroker crank involved?
