My other bike (not a VTR)

Seeing as so many people liked my newest bike (the firestorm/superhawk) maybe you'll like this.

My trusty steed known as 'The Scud', I've owned it for a couple of years and have ridden it many many thousands of miles. It was originally a Honda Bros (nt400) but has had a thousand different mods since I've owned it.

Transalp 650 Lump

Home-made chain oiler.
Home-made headlamp brackets.
Jota handle bars
Home-made risers.
Filled in wheel.
Highway bars.
Ammo-can toolbox.
Twin 7" lights
cat-eye reap lamp.
Revere 19 Litre tank.
Home made front rack.
Home made sissy bar.
Massive Exhaust from a Subaru Imprezza (got it off ebay for a £1) shown in 2nd photo.
Extended sidestand by welding a 17mm socket on the end (to cope with fireblade rear shock)
Headlight grill made from a shopping basket.

If there was anything that made me want to pull out "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome", this is it!

Man, that's a sweet ride!

killer5280 Oct 1, 2008 09:38 AM

That's even better than the Hawk.

Wicky Oct 1, 2008 09:41 AM

What reaction do you get when you take it for an MOT test? :eek:

Keep trying at the vtr1000.org forums - is it just the registration confirmation e-mail that you're waiting on?

Death Cattle Oct 1, 2008 09:54 AM

thats just plain fucking badass. you must have a lot of time on your hands.

RedStormV Oct 1, 2008 10:18 AM

Heath Robinson springs to mind :eek:

The Storm posted here looks 'better' ? but only just

Dunno what prob with registration is matey - but Wicky has posted as above so Admins will pick up on it.

RickB Oct 1, 2008 12:35 PM

Pretty cool looking bike!

drew_c14 Oct 1, 2008 01:00 PM

That's the coolest thing I've seen all day.

BatBike13 Oct 1, 2008 01:39 PM

That's sweet! you must get some great looks from people riding by. the spinal column bones are awesome...kick ass mad max!

Tonyizcool1 Oct 1, 2008 06:54 PM

That is a crazy looking bike right there.

netav8tor Oct 1, 2008 07:14 PM

The rat bikes in san francisco look somewhat close but your bike that has a lot more creative elements. Build em and sell em, funky artist types in new york will bite.

VTRsurfer Oct 1, 2008 08:07 PM

"Mad Max" for sure. Where are the machine gun mounts. :gatlin:

andy9743 Oct 2, 2008 04:08 AM

You get major points for Mac Gyverness! Very cool!

RI-redhawk Dec 4, 2008 02:41 PM

cameron Dec 4, 2008 03:46 PM

good work, hows the huge pipe sound?

Little_Horse Dec 4, 2008 07:47 PM

I like that you still tour on it, its like where do you sit:eek:

VTRsurfer Dec 4, 2008 08:46 PM

Nobody has mentioned the sissy bar. It's not often you see one that's not chromed twisted steel, cool.:phatyo:

RK1 Dec 4, 2008 08:58 PM

Very cool, Ratty. I'd suggest the addition of a side car, an old Mg34 and 100 rounds of linked 8X57 ammo, but that would probably land your arse in prison!

Woodytick Dec 21, 2008 07:35 AM

:wtf2: umm, :wtf2: umm, is that thing :wtf2: umm, LEGAL!!!!
