That 1000R build is over on the VFR Discussion website.  You can just barely see it but there's a headlight on the left side of the front, street legal baby.

Nice vid!  Thanks for posting.

I found it on a Dutch website. Those guys are a couple of French bike builders, they also got their own site.

Hey CaféElite, any details on this build? I wonder how he atomized the gasoline.

what is that under the seat. looks like cooling fans or speakers.

Rad and fans...

Johnsy.. take your product pitch elsewhere Since you have a thread for these shirts in the project section is it possible to keep your product talk there since you lack the ability to post pics of bikes? ::)

Buy a new chain!

And, they better not hit any potholes!!  There's only an inch of travel on those front forks!

Looks like concentric adjustors to me.

 I think you mean eccentric adjuster.
 I used to build them for a frame company, for a 3/4 inch axle the rotating element is around 2in od on the smaller part, without the flange. The clamping part would have to be about a minimum of 2.5 inch od, or bigger.

 My guess is they will add a chain tensioner, part of the plan.... or it soon will be ;)

 Looks like around 2 inches of travel, anything is better than none... I doubt it is used offroad, so is probably OK for the street.. just use carefully..

I love it when people try and question the functionality of bikes like this

chances are this bike was not created to be practical, and the guy that built it knew that it would ride like #$%*. Obviously favors looks over practicality. So take it for what it is
